Figure Lengend Snippet: Immune activation by GP@ Gel Nap‐T in tumor tissues in vivo. a) Schematic illustration about the workflow of FCM and IF analysis of tumor tissues from CMT167 tumor‐bearing mice on day 14 after different treatments. b–d) Quantitative FCM analysis of the proportions of (b) CD4 + T cells, (c) CD8 + T cells, (d) NK cells in the tumor tissues from CMT167 tumor‐bearing mice on day 14 after different treatments ( n = 5 biological independent samples). e) Representative IF staining of CD4, CD8, and NK1.1 in the tumor tissues from CMT167 tumor‐bearing mice on day 14 after different treatments. DAPI (blue), CD4 (green), CD8, and NK1.1 (red). Scale bars: 50 µm ( n = 3 biological independent samples). f–q) Quantitative FCM analysis of the proportions of (f) M1‐TAMs, (g) M2‐TAMs, (h) M‐MDSCs, (i) PMN‐MDSCs, (j) Tregs, (k) Ki‐67 + CD8 + T cells, (l) GZB + CD8 + T cells, (m) GZB + NK1.1 + cells, (n) IFN‐γ + CD8 + T cells, (o) IFN‐γ + NK1.1 + cells, (p) CD8 + T CM (CD8 + CD44 + CD62L + ) cells, and (q) CD8 + T EM (CD8 + CD44 + CD62L − ) in the tumor tissues from CMT167 tumor‐bearing mice on day 14 after different treatments ( n = 5 biological independent samples). Results are presented as mean ± SD. Statistical significance was assessed using one‐way ANOVA with Tukey's post‐test. ns: no significant difference, * P < 0.05, ** P < 0.01, *** P < 0.001, **** P < 0.0001.
