CD163 and neoplasm: TYMP expression was high in poorly differentiated tumors, right-sided CRC, and tumors with high microsatellite instability CD163-expressing macrophages near tumor epithelial cells had high expression in poorly differentiated and T4 tumors. High TYMP expression in tumor epithelial cells was in the multivariate analyses associated with shorter relapse-free survival (hazard ratio 1.66; 95% confidence interval: 1.09–2.56; p < 0.05).
