Figure Lengend Snippet: Characteristics and changes of immune cells in pre- and post- neoadjuvant hormone therapy (NHT) groups in GSE111177 . (A) Supervised clustering of PCa specimens by NHT (n = 24), displaying ssGSEA scores ( GSE111177 ). (B) The biological process of DEGs identified in pre-/post- NHT groups ( GSE111177 ). (C) Comparison of the expression of CD4, CD8A and CD8B, CD20, FOXP3, CD21, GZMB, PRF1 in PCa patients before and after NHT using GSE111177 cohort (n = 24). (D) Comparison of GSVA scores utilizing four TLS signatures in 24 paired pre-NHT and post-NHT samples from GSE111177 .
Article Snippet: Then, slides were treated by microwave to induce antigen retrieval using citric acid solution for 15 min. 6 primary antibodies were used, including CD4 (1:500, #Ab67480, Abcam), CD8 (1:300, #66868-1-Ig, proteintech), CD20 (1:1000, #60271-1-Ig, proteintech), CD21 (1:200, #24374-1-AP, proteintech), Ki67(1:1000, #HA721115, HuaBio), pan-cytokeratin (1:2000, # HA601094 , HuaBio), DAPI (1:500, #C1002, Beyotime).
