Analysis of CD68, CD163 and CD11b cell number in samples from n=12 primary tumours and their matched local recurrence. (A) We did not observe a difference in CD68+ or CD163+ cell influx in the recurrent samples compared with primary tumours . In contrast, there was a significant increase (P=0.0097) in CD11b+ cell infiltration in recurrent tumours compared with their matched primary tumour samples. (B) Cell number in each of the 12 patients (No.1–12) is shown as indicated. Columns/points, median; bars, s.d. (C) Example of CD11b+ expression in primary tumour (left) and its matched recurrence sample (right). Magnification, × 10.
