Figure Lengend Snippet: Representative mIHC images of tumor-infiltrating immune cells and immunoregulatory genes. Representative mIHC images show the fluorescence intensities of the composite of CD3, CD8, CD20, CD68, CD86, CD163, LAMP3, PD-1 and PD-L1 in (A) HCC tissues and (B) adjacent non-tumor tissues. CK, cytokeratin; HCC, hepatocellular carcinoma; mIHC, multiplex immunohistochemistry; PD-1, programmed cell death-1; PD-L1, programmed death-ligand 1.
