The tumor microenvironment (TME) plays a crucial role in tumor growth. This study explored the cellular composition and immunological landscape of CC using various genomic data sources.<h4>Methods</h4>Data from the Cancer Genome Atlas and Gene Expression Omnibus were analyzed, including single-cell RNA sequencing, spatial transcriptome analysis, and survival data.

Cell-cell communication analyses highlighted interactions between macrophages and epithelial cells.<h4>Results</h4>Macrophage markers correlated with overall survival (OS) and disease-free survival (DFS). Epithelial cell subgroups 1 and 4, along with CD8+ T cells, were associated with OS. TIDE scores varied between groups.
