Figure 1 (A–C) Immunohistochemical staining for B7-H3 in tumor cells and the tumor vasculature of clear cell renal cell carcinoma. (A) Representative tumor with low B7-H3 expression in tumor cells and the tumor vasculature. (B) Representative tumor with high B7-H3 expression in tumor cells. (C) Representative tumor with high B7-H3 expression in the tumor vasculature. (D and E) Immunohistochemical staining for FOXP3 in tumor-infiltrating cells in clear cell renal cell carcinoma. (D) Representative tumor with a low FOXP3+ cell density. (E) Representative tumor with a high FOXP3+ cell density. Scale bar, 100 µm.
