The heterogeneity and intricate cellular architecture of complex cellular ecosystems play a crucial role in the progression and therapeutic response of cancer. Understanding the regulatory relationships of malignant cells at the invasive front of the tumor microenvironment (TME) is important to explore the heterogeneity of the TME and its role in disease progression. In this study, we inferred malignant cells at the invasion front by analyzing single-cell RNA sequencing (scRNA-seq) and spatial transcriptomics (ST) data of ER-positive (ER+) breast cancer patients.

Cancer cells and other cells within the tumor microenvironment interact to determine disease progression, as well as response to or escape from treatment. Understanding the regulatory relationship between cancer cells and their tumor microenvironment in lung adenocarcinoma is of great significance for exploring the heterogeneity of the tumor microenvironment and its role in the genesis and development of lung adenocarcinoma.
