The tumor microenvironment (TME) is a complex ecosystem involving intricate interactions between tumor cells and various immune cell subsets, including T cells, B cells, and myeloid cells. These immune components are pivotal in shaping the anti-tumor immune response, tumor progression, and therapeutic outcomes. However, our understanding of their precise functional contributions remains incomplete. This Methods Collection will provide comprehensive state-of-the-art techniques for investigating the functions of these immune components within the TME. It will cover isolation and purification strategies for specific immune cell subsets, functional assays to assess their cytotoxic potential, cytokine profiles, and regulatory functions. Additionally, it will explore techniques to evaluate the antigen-presenting capabilities, antibody production, and immune-modulatory roles of B cells, as well as methods to characterize the phenotypic and functional heterogeneity of myeloid cells. We also aim to cover in vivo tumor models, advanced imaging approaches, and bioinformatics pipelines for multi-omics data integration. By providing detailed protocols and expert insights, this collection aims to equip researchers with tools to unravel the intricate functions of immune cells in the TME, advancing the development of effective cancer immunotherapies.
