Spatial and single-cell omics propel precision biomarker discovery in tumor immunotherapy, review finds

Peer-Reviewed Publication Shanghai Jiao Tong University Journal Center FacebookXLinkedInWeChatBlueskyMessageWhatsAppEmail image: This illustration summarizes how integrated spatial transcriptomics, single-cell transcriptomics, single-cell epigenomics, and spatial epigenomics enable multi-dimensional profiling of the tumor microenvironment. These technologies help map immune and tumor cell heterogeneity, spatial gene expression, chromatin accessibility, and epigenetic remodeling related to immune evasion and therapeutic response.
