A recent Nature Immunology study explores the cellular and molecular adaptations associated with human secondary lymphoid tissue in adults during viral infection. Lymphoid tissues play a vital role in ...

Mucosa-associated lymphoid tissue (MALT) lymphoma is an indolent B-cell non-Hodgkin lymphoma that originates in specialised lymphoid tissues located in various mucosal sites. Often arising against a ...

Tertiary lymphoid structures are formations that occur outside of the lymphatic system. They contain immune cells and are similar in structure and function to lymph nodes and other lymphoid structures ...

How do tertiary lymphoid structures influence immunotherapy outcomes in Merkel cell carcinoma? Spatial proteomics reveals key ...

Breast cancer is able to modify the lymphatic vessels through which it travels to the draining lymph nodes. From there, it can then spread to other parts of the body. A new finding by Finnish ...

Scientists at the Pasteur Institute in France say they have developed artificial lymphoid organ-chips that recreate much of the human immune system’s response to booster vaccines. The technology, ...

In findings that have implications for potential new HIV therapies, researchers from Texas Biomedical Research Institute (Texas Biomed) used genetic sequencing techniques on the nonhuman primate ...

The lymphatic system, made up of lymphoid tissues known as nodes and vessels, is part of the human immune system. It is involved in protecting the body against infection, by delivering immune cells, ...
