Blockade of TGF-βRI in vivo reversed M2-TAMs-mediated cisplatin resistance. A Tumor images of nude mice tumorigenic model injected with shTGFβR1 EC109 cells or shNC EC109 cells mixed with M2-TAM. B The weight of tumor tissue in two groups. C Growth curve of tumor in two groups. D Western blot was used to detect the expression of TGF-β/Smad2/3 pathway protein, stemness markers CD44 and OCT4 in tumor tissues of nude mice. E Immunohistochemistry and HE staining were used to analyze the expression of ki67, TGF-β1, CD44, OCT4, and p-Smad2/3 in two groups of tumor tissues. Scale bar: 100 μm
