Multi-Omics Analysis of Novel Signature for Immunotherapy Response and Tumor Microenvironment Regulation Patterns in Urothelial Cancer

The tumor microenvironment (TME) is mainly composed of tumor cells, tumor-infiltrating immune cells, and stromal components. It plays an essential role in the prognosis and therapeutic response of patients. Nonetheless, the TME landscape of urothelial cancer (UC) has not been fully elucidated. In th...
