Immunohistochemistry and positive scores of TGFβ and IL-10 in the tumor microenvironment. a. Immunohistochemistry graphs of tumor xenografts in C57BL/6 J mice, post treatment. Extensive expression of TGFβ and IL-10 could be detected in the area surrounding the melanoma cells post radiotherapy and chemotherapy, while IFNα had little effect on the expression of TGFβ and IL-10. b and c Immunohistochemistry positive scores of TGFβ and IL-10. * indicates P < 0.05, ** indicates P < 0.01 and *** indicates P < 0.001 compared with the control group
