Intratumoral tertiary lymphoid structure (TLS) maturation is influenced by draining lymph nodes of lung cancer [PDF]
Background Tertiary lymphoid structure (TLS) is an organized infiltration of immune cells, showing features of germinal center (GC) commonly seen in secondary lymphoid organs. However, its relationship with tumor-draining lymph nodes (TDLNs) has not been

Non-immune regulation of tertiary lymphoid structures in cancer [PDF]
Tertiary lymphoid structures (TLS) are ectopic immune aggregates that form in response to chronic inflammation, and their presence across many solid tumors has been associated with improved survival and enhanced responses to immunotherapy.

GCUNet: a graph neural network-based contextual learning network for tertiary lymphoid structure semantic segmentation in whole slide image [PDF]
This study focuses on tertiary lymphoid structure (TLS) semantic segmentation in whole slide images (WSIs). Unlike TLS binary segmentation, TLS semantic segmentation identifies boundaries and maturity and requires the integration of contextual ...

Research progress of tertiary lymphoid structure in hepatocellular carcinoma: from prognostic biomarkers to new strategies for immunotherapy [PDF]
Tertiary lymphoid structures (TLS) are important ectopic immune aggregates that develop within the tumor microenvironment (TME) of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) and have attracted increasing attention due to their potential clinical value.

The pivotal role of tertiary lymphoid structures in the tumor immune microenvironment
Tertiary lymphoid structures (TLS) are ectopic lymphoid structures that form in non-lymphoid tissues in response to chronic inflammatory stimulation. Structurally and functionally resembling lymph nodes, TLS are primarily composed of B cells, T cells ...

Abstract Colorectal cancer (CRC) ranks as the third most common and second deadliest cancer worldwide. The immune system, particularly tertiary lymphoid structures (TLS), significantly influences CRC progression and prognosis. TLS maturation, especially in the presence of germinal centers, correlates with improved patient outcomes; however ...

Immunotherapy has been determined as an important choice in breast carcinomas, especially in tumors with markedly inflammatory response. About this promising subject, tumor-infiltrating lymphocytes (TIL) and the expression of immune control point receptors on TIL have gained importance.In this study, stromal TIL and tertiary lymphoid structures (TLS ...
