A High Density of Impaired Tertiary Lymphoid Structures Is Associated with Higher Tumor Stage and Recurrence in Non-Muscle-Invasive Bladder Cancer
Cancer Immunol Res. 2026 Aug 31. doi: 10.1158/2326-6066.CIR-26-0104. Online ahead of print. ABSTRACT Tertiary lymphoid structures (TLS) have emerged as critical immune niches within the tumor microenvironment across various cancers. However, their structural organization and functional roles in non-muscle-invasive bladder cancer (NMIBC) remain poorly characterized. In this study, we comprehensively characterized TLS in NMIBC using … Read more
