The immune suppressive tumour microenvironment drives recurrence and metastatic disease in prostate cancer. Here authors provide a detailed analysis of the microenvironment via single cell RNA sequencing and high-resolution spatial transcriptomics to identify tumour-dependent changes compared to healthy tissue.
