Deskripsi

The intratumoural heterogeneity of spinal ependymomas and the role of microglia in tumour progression remain underexplored. Here, the authors perform single-cell RNA- and ATAC-sequencing data analysis of three subtypes and reveal tumour-associated macrophage subsets with distinct functional phenotypes.
