	1. 512 Accesses	Research article Prognostic impact of CD57, CD68, M-CSF, CSF-1R, Ki67 and TGF-beta in soft tissue sarcomas Sveinung W Sorbye, Thomas K Kilvaer, Andrej Valkov, Tom Donnem, Eivind Smeland, Khalid Al-Shibli, Roy M Bremnes, Lill-Tove Busund BMC Clinical Pathology 2012, 12:7 (3 May 2012) Abstract \| Provisional PDF \| PubMed \| Editor’s summary Increased co-expression of M-CSF and TGF-beta in soft tissue sarcoma, and increased expression of Ki67 in peritumoral capsule are independent negative prognostic factors for survival, suggesting that innate immunity markers may serve as prognosticators in soft tissue sarcomas.
