189P Image-guided labeling of live cells in tertiary lymphoid structures for single-cell transcriptomics

Year: 2024

Type: article

Abstract: Tertiary lymphoid structures (TLSs) are lymphocyte aggregates that correlate with better prognosis in most cancers. TLSs possess anti-tumor potentials but their compositions and functions vary across cancer types and stages, so our understanding of TLS remains largely descriptive. Current studies are limited to fixed pathological samples for immunohistochemistry or spatial transcriptomics, yielding restricted mRNA content in rare cell types. To study the anti-tumor role of TLS, we choose prostate cancer, cause of one of the highest cancer-related deaths in U.S, as our disease model.
