Groundbreaking Lymphoma Tumor Model Paves Way for New Therapies

Caption

Lymph node tumor microenvironment of lymphomas with malignant B cells (magenta) surrounded by T cells (green), which induce survival mechanism in tumor cells and dampen the response to therapeutics. This microenvironment was faithfully mimicked in a 3D hydrogel of lymphoma patient tumors to discover role of tumor microenvironment in lymphomas and how combinatorial therapies can overcome resistance in tumors.
