A review on in-silico analysis of immune cell trafficking and interactions with the tumour microenvironment

This review discusses the role of computational models in understanding immune cell dynamics within the tumor microenvironment (TME).

The tumor microenvironment is crucial in cancer progression and treatment outcomes, consisting of various cell types that interact dynamically.

No numerical data or trial data provided in the article.

Immune cell trafficking in TMEs significantly influences tumor destruction or immune evasion.
Computational models can simulate immune dynamics and help understand tumor escape mechanisms.
Factors affecting immune cell infiltration include chemotactic gradients, adhesion molecules, and metabolic reprogramming.
Bioinformatics resources like TCGA and TIMER assist in analyzing immune system composition and immunogenomics.
Challenges in precision immunotherapy include data heterogeneity and model validation.

The integration of computational models in cancer research can enhance the understanding of immune responses in the TME.

Computational science is important for elucidating immune-tumor interactions.
