Standardized Pathology Screening of Mature Tertiary Lymphoid Structures in Cancers.

Mature tertiary lymphoid structures (mTLSs) are organized lymphoid structures containing B lymphocytes admixed to CD23+ follicular dendritic cells. Their presence has been linked to improved survival and sensitivity to immune checkpoint inhibitors in several cancers, emerging as a promising pancancer biomarker. However, the requirements for any biomarker are clear methodology, proven feasibility, and reliability.
