Abstract excerpt
Inherited genetic variation can weaken the ability of the immune system to detect and eliminate malignant cells, limiting the effectiveness of cancer immunotherapy. However, how germline polymorphisms shape the tumor immune microenvironment across cancers remains unclear. Here, we present a polygenic analysis framework that integrates single-cell RNA sequencing with GWAS summary statistics across 14 cancer types...
