Computational dissection of the regulatory mechanisms of aberrant metabolism in remodeling the microenvironment of breast cancer.

The composition of T cell subsets and tumor-specific T cell interactions within the tumor microenvironment (TME) contribute to the heterogeneity observed in breast cancer. Moreover, aberrant tumor metabolism is often intimately linked to dysregulated anti-tumor immune function of T cells. Identifying key metabolic genes that affect immune cell interactions thus holds promise for uncovering potential therapeutic targets in the treatment of breast cancer.
