Immune cells in the B-cell lymphoma microenvironment:From basic research to clinical applications
B-cell lymphoma is a group of hematological malignancies characterized by variable genetic and biological features and clinical behaviors.The tumor microenvironment(TME)is a complex network in tumors,which consists of surrounding blood vessels,extracellular matrix,immune and non-immune cells,and signaling molecules.Increasing evidence has shown that the TME,espe-cially immune cells within,is a double-edged sword,acting either as a tumor killer or as a promoter of tumor progression.These pro-tumor activities are driven by subpopulations of immune cells that express typical markers but have unique transcriptional characteristics,making tumor-associated immune cells good targets for human anti-cancer therapy by ablating immunosuppres-sive cells or enhancing immune-activated cells.Thus,exploring the role of immune cells in the TME provides distinct insights for immunotherapy in B-cell lymphoma.In this review,we elucidated the interaction between immune cells and tumor cells and their function in the initiation,progression,and prognosis of B-cell lymphoma,from preclinical experiments to clinical trials.Furthermore,we outlined potential therapeutic approaches and discussed the potential clinical value and future perspectives of targeting immune cells in patients with B-cell lymphoma.
