Non-functional pituitary adenomas (NFPA) are non-hormone secreting pituitary tumours while growth hormone-secreting pituitary adenomas (GHPA) are active pituitary tumours causing acromegaly. Since immunotherapy is becoming the preferred therapeutic strategy in cancers, understanding the diversity of immune cells infiltrating the tumour microenvironment is warranted. However, little is known about the immune landscape of pituitary tumours. We validated an acoustic-assisted hydr...
