“…A recent three-dimensional reconstruction of TLS in CRC tissue showed that TLS are often large, multi-lobular structures, suggesting that assessing TLS across whole sections may be necessary to provide an accurate view of TLS activity in a patient’s tumour.MethodsWe used whole-section scans of multiplexed immunofluorescence images to characterise TLS from 22 subjects with CRC. Multiplexed staining for CD20, CD3, CD8, Foxp3 and Ki-67 enabled us to identify B-cells, CD8+ T-cells, Foxp3– CD4 T-cells, and Foxp3+ CD4 Tcells in all sections, and quantify both the presence of these cell subsets in lymphocytic clusters and their degree of proliferation within those clusters.ResultsIn total we identified 524 lymphocytic clusters with morphology consistent with TLS. …”
