Figure 2From: Chemokine-mediated distribution of dendritic cell subsets in renal cell carcinoma Quantification of CD1a (A) and CD83 (B) expressing dendritic cells (DCs) in RCC tissue, tumour infiltration border zone and corresponding normal kidney. (A) Tumour tissue of RCC shows a statistically significant increased number of immature CD1a+ DCs (Mean: 14.44, SD: 19.59) compared to the tumour infiltration border zone (Mean: 4.621, SD: 5.577) and normal kidney tissue (Mean: 2.182, SD: 1.805). (B) In contrast, a significant increased amount of mature CD83+ DCs is observed within the tumour infiltration border zone (Mean: 18.41, SD: 11.94) compared to tumour tissue (Mean: 4.6608, SD: 4.364) and normal kidney (Mean: 4.784, SD: 3.282; Mann-Whitney test with Bonferroni correction; p values < 0.05 were considered as statistically significant).Back to article page
