Abstract excerpt
The B cells inhabited in mucosa play a vital role in mediating homeostasis with autoantigens and external Ags. Tumor-infiltrating lymphocytes are potential prognostic markers and therapeutic agents for cancer. However, the spatial heterogeneity of the B cell repertoire in intestinal mucosa and the tumor-infiltrating lymphocytes in colorectal cancer (CRC) remain poorly understood. In this study, we developed an...
