Spatial Evaluation and Prognostic Significance of V-Domain Immunoglobulin Suppressor of T-Cell Activation (VISTA) in Human Resectable Cervical Carcinoma: Implications for Immune Activation and Suppression
V-domain immunoglobulin suppressor of T-cell activation (VISTA) is a promising next-generation immune checkpoint target. This study investigated the distribution and clinical significance of VISTA expression in cervical carcinoma. Using a cohort of 290 patients from Sun Yat-sen Memorial Hospital, we assessed VISTA expression in tumor cells, endothelial cells, and immune cells (ICs) through immunohistochemistry, and found that it was expressed in tumor cells (18.6%), endothelial cells (38.3%), and ICs (100%). Higher infiltration of VISTA
