KIDNEY TUMOR, INFILTRATION
To assess the correlation between Rad-score and immune infiltration, we collected immunohistochemical images from 40 patients with small ccRCC and evaluated a total of 12 immunomarkers. Subsequently, hierarchical clustering analyses were performed for specific immunomarkers. We selected paraffin-embedded kidney tumor tissues from patients with one high-grade ccRCC and one low-grade ccRCC from our sample repository. Terminal deoxynucleotidyl transferase dUTP nick end labeling (TUNEL) assays were utilized to evaluate potential differences in apoptosis between low-grade and high-grade ccRCC [
