A high-resolution view of intra-tumoral B cell immunity
Abstract
In this issue of Immunity, Meylan et al. (2022) uses spatial transcriptomics to examine B cell immunity within intratumoral tertiary lymphoid structures (TLSs). They find that B cells expand and mature into plasma cells (PCs) within the TLS, migrate along fibroblastic tracks to tumor beds, and produce IgG antibodies that target cancer cells.
