What Role Do Immune Cells Play in Microenvironmental Heterogeneity?

Immune cells are integral components of the tissue microenvironment. Different regions of a tissue can have varying immune cell populations, creating a heterogeneous immune landscape. This can impact tissue homeostasis, inflammation, and immune response to pathogens or tumors. Techniques like flow cytometry and immunofluorescence are used to study these variations.
