Table summarises the pathological assessment of patients biopsy tissue for all 6 patients used in the study, and the immuno-phenotyping analysis of stromal cells isolated from these. The numbers (%) represent an estimation of the proportion of positive cells. Counts were determined manually, from 3 microscopic fields.
