Significance
Considering the limited therapeutic options available to patients with malignant mesothelioma, there is substantial translational potential in understanding the correlation between the spatial architecture of the malignant mesothelioma tumor immune microenvironment and tumor biology. Our investigation reveals critical cell-cell interactions that may influence the immune response against malignant mesothelioma tumors, potentially contributing to the differential behaviors observed in MPM and MPeM. These findings represent a valuable resource for the malignant mesothelioma cancer research community.
