IHC analysis of tumor vasculature in 18 different types of human tumor specimens. Microvessel density (MVD), pericyte coverage and vascular scores were determined with IHC analysis by staining CD31 and αSMA among 18 types of human tumor specimens. Analysis was performed as described in materials and methods. Bars (red) indicated median values for MVD or % of pericyte coverage of each type of tumors. (A) MVD. (B) % of pericyte coverage. (C) Summary of MVD, pericyte coverage and vascular score.
