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

Tertiary lymphoid structures as local perpetuators of organ-specific immune injury: implication for lupus nephritis [PDF]
In response to inflammatory stimuli in conditions such as autoimmune disorders, infections and cancers, immune cells organize in nonlymphoid tissues, which resemble secondary lymphoid organs.

Role of Tertiary Lymphoid Structures (TLS) in Anti-Tumor Immunity: Potential Tumor-Induced Cytokines/Chemokines that Regulate TLS Formation in Epithelial-Derived Cancers [PDF]
Following the successes of monoclonal antibody immunotherapies (trastuzumab (Herceptin®) and rituximab (Rituxan®)) and the first approved cancer vaccine, Provenge® (sipuleucel-T), investigations into the immune system and how it can be modified by a tumor has become an exciting and promising new field of cancer research.

Multi-omics profiling and experimental verification of tertiary lymphoid structure-related genes: molecular subgroups, immune infiltration, and prognostic implications in lung adenocarcinoma [PDF]
Lung adenocarcinoma (LUAD), characterized by a low 5-year survival rate, is the most common and aggressive type of lung cancer. Recent studies have shown that tertiary lymphoid structures (TLS), which resemble lymphoid structures, are closely linked to ...

Exploring the impact of tertiary lymphoid structures maturity in NSCLC: insights from TLS scoring
Tertiary Lymphoid Structures (TLS) are lymphoid structures commonly associated with improved survival of cancer patients and response to immunotherapies. However, conflicting reports underscore the need to consider TLS heterogeneity and multiple features such as TLS size, composition, and maturation status, when assessing their functional impact.
