In this issue of Blood Cancer Discovery, Han and colleagues find that follicular lymphomas (FL) can be stratified into distinct classes with clinical and functional relevance based on their T-cell subset composition. Their findings further indicate that pairing of FL cell MHCII expression with specific T-cell markers may represent a useful diagnostic approach to select patients for particular immunotherapies or immune augmentation therapies independent of genetic profiling. See related article by Han et al., p. 428 (4).

Primary Lymphoid Organs
The red bone marrow is a soft, spongy tissue nestled in the interior of long bones such as the humerus and femur. It is the site...
Secondary Lymphoid Organs
The spleen is a vital organ in the lymphatic system, nestled in the upper left side of the abdomen. It is composed of two primary regions: the red pulp and the white pulp, each having distinct functions. The red pulp performs a significant role in blood filtration. It efficiently purges the blood of old or damaged red blood cells and...
Lymphoid Cells and Tissues
Lymphoid cells consist of various types of immune system cells. These include B and T lymphocytes, which are responsible for producing antibodies and killing infected cells, respectively. Dendritic cells act as messengers between the innate and adaptive...
Detailed Structure and Function of Lymph Nodes
From a histological perspective, lymph nodes can be split into two main areas: the superficial cortex and the deep medulla. The outer cortex is populated by dendritic cells, macrophages, and B lymphocytes, which are densely packed into follicles. When these B-lymphocytes are presented...
