ABSTRACT
The influence B cells have in the tumor microenvironment has historically remained unresolved across solid tumors. At the same time, numerous findings of ectopic germinal centers in inflamed tumors containing tertiary lymphoid structures have been the impetus for redefining what effective antitumor immunity looks like. In this issue, Zeng and colleagues and Rodriguez Chevez and colleagues enrich our perspective on the roles of intratumoral B cells and their cross-talk with T cells intratumorally to augment adaptive immune responses targeting tumor antigens.
