Comprehensive Bioinformatics Analysis Identifies Tumor Microenvironment and Immune-related Genes in Small Cell Lung Cancer

摘要

Background: Tumor microenvironment (TME) cells play important roles in tumor progression. Accumulating evidence show that they can be exploited to predict the clinical outcomes and therapeutic responses of the tumor. However, the role of immune genes of TME in small cell lung cancer (SCLC) is currently unknown.
