Tissue microarrays. (A) Tissue microarray, tumor punches [TU], metastatic lymph node punches [LM] and control lymph node punches stained for CD3. (B) Primary tumor side. By means of a semi-automatic image processing software (Biomas, Erlangen, Germany), the count of positively stained cells was set into relation to the surface of the epithelial compartment [EC] (after exclusion of the luminal compartment [LC]) and the stromal compartment [SC], respectively. (C) FoxP3+ TILs in primary tumor site and the stromal compartment (D) FoxP3+ cells in the lymph node (E) FoxP3+ cells in control lymph node (F) CD3+ TILs in primary tumor site (G) CD8+ TILs in primary tumor site (H) CD20+ TILs in primary tumor site (I) CD68+ macrophages in primary tumor site (J) Granzyme B+ TILs in primary tumor site.
