The tumor microenvironment (TME) includes diverse cellular components such as mesenchymal stem cells (MSC) and immune cells. MSC are a subset of heterogeneous cell populations characterized by the expression of CD105, CD73, and CD90 that can differentiate into chondrocytes, osteoblasts, and adipocytes in vitro. They are known to have immunomodulatory capabilities. Our aim was to isolate and characterize the immunomodulatory capabilities of MSC from pituitary tumors (P...
