Abstract

BACKGROUND: Due to the unique heterogeneity of neuroblastoma, its treatment and prognosis are closely related to the biological behavior of the tumor. However, the effect of the tumor immune microenvironment on neuroblastoma needs to be investigated, and there is a lack of biomarkers to reflect the condition of the tumor immune microenvironment.
