Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
The tumor microenvironment (TME) plays a crucial role in shaping the efficacy of immunotherapy treatments for cancer. This dynamic and complex ecosystem, which includes tumor cells, cancer stem cells, immune cells, stromal components, and extracellular matrix, can significantly influence tumor progression and response to therapy. Recent research highlights both the opportunities and challenges associated with targeting the TME to improve immunotherapy outcomes. Understanding the interplay between the TME and immune response is essential for advancing personalized immunotherapy.
We invite authors to contribute to our upcoming topics, focusing on the intricate interplay between the TME and therapeutic strategies aimed at enhancing immune responses against cancer. Topics of interest include, but are not limited to:
• The role of the TME in shaping immune responses and influencing immunotherapy efficacy
• Molecular mechanism of the tumor ecosystem
• Innovations in targeting any component of TME to enhance treatment responses
• Advances in novel therapeutic approaches and technologies for TME modulation
• Biomarkers and profiling techniques for assessing TME characteristics and predicting therapeutic outcomes
