Systematic Analysis of Tumor Microenvironment Using IOBR

The Immuno-Oncology Biological Research (IOBR) package is an R-based analysis tool for exploring the tumor microenvironment (TME) and its influence on anti-tumor immunity. Built for high-throughput data-spanning both transcriptomic and genomic profiles-IOBR integrates six analytical modules, including transcriptomic data preprocessing, TME profiling, TME pattern identification, ligand-receptor interaction analysis, genome-TME interaction assessment, and visualization. In this chapter, we walk through a multi-omics workflow using example datasets, illustrating data preparation, distribution analyses, result interpretation, and graphical output. IOBR is open source and is available at https://github.com/IOBR/IOBR and a detailed GitBook ( https://iobr.github.io/book/ ) offers a complete manual and analysis guide for each function.
