Among these, intratumoral T cells trended slightly higher in mHMTA (Fig. 4I), and IHC analysis—a more reliable tool, when examining the hard-to-digest tumor capsule—of human CD45+ and CD3+ cells present in nonoverlapping ∼250 μm2 fields in the tumors, and their capsules (Fig. 4J) revealed larger T-cell populations in the non-necrotic regions of the mHMTA tumors (Fig. 4K and L; P = 0.0204 and 0.0107, respectively, Wilcoxon rank-sum test). Here, PTPRC is linked to neoplasm.
