Abstract
The characterisation of the papillary thyroid carcinoma (PTC) tumour microenvironment remains crucial. Here, the authors perform single-cell RNA sequencing in 11 patients and identify potential opportunities for the use of immunotherapy and its combination with anti-angiogenic therapy in PTC.
