Skin basal cell carcinomas assemble a pro-tumorigenic spatially organized and self-propagating Trem2+ myeloid niche
Our study sought to identify key elements of the tumor microenvironment (TME) that drive distinct tumor states by defining the spatial organization of the TME. We find the proliferative neighborhood matures TREM2+ immunosuppressive myeloid cells into a self-propagating tumor-immune niche.
