Macrophage spatial heterogeneity in gastric cancer defined by multiplex immunohistochemistry

Tumor associated macrophages are functionally and phenotypically heterogeneous. Here the authors describe the spatial distribution of distinct macrophage populations within regions of gastric cancer and probe their associations with clinical outcomes, gene signatures and PDL1 expression.
