Tertiary Lymphoid Structures Methods and Protocols
This volume explores the various methods used to study tertiary lymphoid structures (TLS) in pathological situations. Pre-clinical models are also discussed in detail to show how TLS structure, development, and maintenance can be targeted and studied in v

Preface The immune system has developed many mechanisms to build up a protective response against pathogens or abnormal cells. Some of them take place in organs (i.e. secondary lymphoid organs, SLO) or structures (such as gut-associated lymphoid tissue (GALT) and mucosa-associated lymphoid tissue (MALT)) that are lifelong and fully dedicated to the elaboration of adaptive immune responses. However, there are also inducible lymphoid structures that develop transiently in response to chronic infl
