Evaluation of Immune Infiltration Based on Image Plus Helps Predict the Prognosis of Stage III Gastric Cancer Patients with Significantly Different Outcomes in Northeastern China

Figure 5

Expression of CD4, CD8, CD20, CD56, CD68, CD117, and CD177 by immune cells infiltrated tumor tissues of GC patients. Representative images of immune markers staining in immune cells from GC samples are shown at ×200 (100 mm) original magnification. Positive expression of CD4 (a), CD8 (b), CD20 (c), CD56 (d), CD68 (e), CD117 (f), and CD177 (g) infiltrated in tumor tissues with a regular distribution. In order to show the distribution from immune cells more clearly, we used computerized imaging system Image-Pro Plus version 6.2 to highlight positive areas in different colors.
