Figure 5. Anti‐VEGF therapy led to decreased infiltration of CD68+ macrophages in human GBM .

Figure 5

  • A–G
    Anti‐CD68 (A), anti‐CSFR1 (B), and anti‐CD206 (C) immunohistochemistry of patient samples derived from treatment‐naive GBM (= 24), post‐radiochemotherapy (S/RTx/CTx) (= 7), and post‐radiochemotherapy + bevacizumab (S/RTx/CTx/Bev) (= 29) therapy are shown. Corresponding quantification of tumor‐infiltrating cells is displayed (anti‐CD68, D), (anti‐CSF1R, E), and (anti‐CD206, F). Ratio of CD206+ versus CD68+ cells (G).
  • H
    Amount of CD206+ perivascular cells per blood vessel.
  • I
    Double staining of Ang‐2 (brown) and CD206 (red) of a S/RTx/CTx/Bev patient, arrowheads indicating perivascular CD206+ cells around Ang‐2+ vessels. Arrows pointing on parenchymal CD206+ cells.
  • J
    CD206+ cells in relation to the percentage of hypoxic (CAIX positive) tumor area.
