CD8A and tumor-associated macrophages (TAMs) marker expression in clinical specimens from the Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO) cancer dataset and multiple tumor models
Samples across (A) colon adenocarcinoma (COAD) or (B) triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) were divided into CD206hiCD86lo and CD206loCD86hi using the median of all specimens (analyzed by t test, p = 0.00028 for COAD and p = 0.0047 for TNBC). Kaplan-Meier analyses of patients stratified by CD8hi versus CD8lo in (A) COAD or (B) TNBC (p = 0.0035 for COAD and p = 2.8793e-05 for TNBC). (C) Immunohistochemical staining of CD206 and CD8 in COAD samples (scale bars, 200 μm). Correlation analyses CD8 expression and CD206 expression in n = 52, p = 0.0029.
