From: The expression profiles of CD47 in the tumor microenvironment of salivary gland cancers: a next step in histology-driven immunotherapy

Fig. 2

Proportions (%) of CD47 positive cells. Thirteen patients with mucoepidermoid carcinoma (MEC), ten patients with adenoid cystic carcinoma (AdCC), eight patients with acinic cell carcinoma (ACC), six patients with salivary duct carcinoma (SDC) and six patients with adenocarcinoma not otherwise specified (AdCaNOS) were included. The expression of CD47 differed between tumor cells (a) and TIICs (b) among histological subtypes and tissue compartments, such as the tumor center and tumor periphery. Mucoepidermoid carcinoma was shown to have the lowest infiltration with CD47+ tumor cells (2.a)
