A global bibliometric perspective on autophagy and tumor microenvironment in cancer research

In conclusion, our study utilized bibliometric tools to investigate the emerging trend of autophagy and TME in cancer. It is the first extensive bibliometric study to comprehensively map the overlap of autophagy and tumor microenvironment in cancer biology. Our results indicate leading authors, collaborative communities, knowledge gaps, and promising subfields like immunotherapy and hypoxia. The findings provide a strategic guide for future directions in research and therapeutic development in cancer biology.
