Why is Immune Landscape Mapping Important in Cancer?
The immune system plays a dual role in cancer, capable of both suppressing tumor growth and promoting tumor escape. Immune landscape mapping helps to elucidate these dynamics, enabling the identification of immune checkpoints, tumor-infiltrating lymphocytes (TILs), and other critical components that influence the immune response. This knowledge can guide the design of targeted therapies, enhance patient stratification, and improve prognostic assessments.
