Figure Lengend Snippet: Co-expression of CD82 and exhaustion markers in colon cancer TMA and their prognostic significance. (A) Representative mIHC staining and single-channel images (DAPI, blue; CK, purple; CD8, cyan; CD82, white; TIM-3, green; PD-1, orange; TCF1, red). (B–D) Comparisons between normal and tumor tissues: (B) proportion of CD8 + CD82 + PD-1 + cells within CD8 + PD-1 + T cells, (C) proportion of CD8 + CD82 + PD-1 + TCF1 + cells within CD8 + PD-1 + TCF1 + T cells, and (D) proportion of CD8 + CD82 + TIM-3 + PD-1 + cells within CD8 + TIM-3 + PD-1 + T cells. (E–G ) Comparisons between epithelial and stromal regions within tumor tissues: (E) proportion of CD8 + CD82 + PD-1 + cells within CD8 + PD-1 + T cells, (F) proportion of CD8 + CD82 + PD-1 + TCF1 + cells within CD8 + PD-1 + TCF1 + T cells, and (G) proportion of CD8 + CD82 + TIM-3 + PD-1 + cells within CD8 + TIM-3 + PD-1 + T cells. (H–J) Kaplan–Meier survival curves for colon cancer patients stratified by: (H) proportion of CD8 + CD82 + PD-1 + cells within CD8 + PD-1 + T cells, (I) proportion of CD8 + CD82 + PD-1 + TCF1 + cells within CD8 + PD-1 + TCF1 + T cells, and (J) proportion of CD8 + CD82 + TIM-3 + PD-1 + cells within CD8 + TIM-3 + PD-1 + T cells. Optimal cutoff values for high and low expression groups are determined using X-tile software. P values for survival differences are calculated using the Kaplan–Meier method, and HR with 95%CI are estimated by univariate Cox proportional hazards regression analysis. *P < 0.05; ****P < 0.0001.
