TEMs correlate with MVD in ovarian cancer tissue. (A) MVD value was calculated in ovarian tumour tissues of EOC patients (n=124), ovarian tumour tissues of patients with benign ovarian cysts (n=75), the peritoneum of EOC patients (n=15) and peritoneum of patients with benign ovarian cysts (n=10). (B) The MVD values in both ovarian tissues and peritoneum of the EOC patients are significantly increased compared with the patients with benign ovarian cysts (student’s t-test). (C and D) The increased MVD values in EOC patients’ ovarian tissues and peritoneum were positively correlated to the infiltrated TEMs number and the TEMs/total macrophages ratio.
