| Summary: | Abstract Tumor-infiltrating T cells recognize, attack, and clear tumor cells, playing a central role in antitumor immune response. However, certain immune cells can impair this response and help tumor immune escape. Therefore, exploring the factors that influence T-cell infiltration is crucial to understand tumor immunity and improve therapeutic effect of cancer immunotherapy. The use of single-cell RNA sequencing (scRNA-seq) allows the high-resolution analysis of the precise composition of immune cells with different phenotypes and other microenvironmental factors, including non-immune stromal cells and the related molecules in the tumor microenvironment of various cancer types. In this review, we summarized the research progress on T-cell infiltration and the crosstalk of other stromal cells and cytokines during T-cell infiltration using scRNA-seq to provide insights into the mechanisms regulating T-cell infiltration and contribute new perspectives on tumor immunotherapy.
