Figure Lengend Snippet: A Circle plot summarizing the maximum number of interactions among individual cell types in metastatic lesions. The thickness of the connecting lines represents the interaction strength. B Comparison of the overall information flow, including the number and strength of interactions, within the inferred networks between PTC and metastatic lesions. C Heatmap displaying the potential outgoing and incoming interaction strength of each cellular cluster in PTC and metastatic lesions. D Heatmap illustrating the relative signaling contribution of each cell group based on the number and strength of interactions, comparing PTC with metastatic lesions. E Differential network centrality analysis based on EMT-like cancer-associated fibroblasts (CAFs), comparing PTC and metastatic lesions. F Bubble heatmap showing the cell-cell communication of selected ligand-receptor pairs between EMT-like CAFs and CD8 + PDCD1 + T cells. Dot size indicates the P -value, while color represents the communication probability. G Multiplex immunohistochemistry (mIHC) validation of the cross-talk between SAA1+ CAFs and T cells via the PPIA-BSG ligand-receptor interaction.
