Dorsal root ganglion or SH‐SY5Y cells were co‐cultured with SACC cells in vitro to simulate the interactions between the neural microenvironment and tumor cells, and a series of assays including transcriptome sequencing, Western blot, and Transwell were performed to investigate the role and molecular mechanism of GAL and GALR2 in the regulation of SACC cells. The gene discussed is GAL; the disease is neoplasm.
