Fig. 1From: The relationship between expression of PD-L1 and HIF-1α in glioma cells under hypoxiaThe relationship of PD-L1 and HIF-1α expression in tumor tissue of glioma patients and their impact on the overall survival. a Immunohistochemistry (IHC) analysis of HIF-1α and PD-L1 in tissue sections of glioma patients. Typical image of positive expressions of HIF-1α (≥ 1%) and PD-L1(≥ 5%) in tissue sections of one patient with grade IV glioma; Typical image of negative expressions of HIF-1α (< 1%) and PD-L1 (< 5%) in tissue sections of one patient with grade II glioma. b PD-L1 and HIF-1α expression in patients with different grades glioma. PD-L1 and HIF-1α expressions in high-grade glioma (HGG) group and low-grade glioma (LGG) group; PD-L1 and HIF-1α expressions in grade II to grade III groups; Correlation analysis of PD-L1 and HIF-1α expression (r = 0.412, P < 0.001) in all glioma patients in our cohort. For (A) to (B), the data were presented as mean ± SEM. *P < 0.05, ***P < 0.001. c The overall survival of glioma patients. Statistical significance was determined by log-rank (Mantel-Cox) testBack to article page
