The paper examines TLS-adjacent tumor epithelium in bladder cancer, finding enrichment of hypoxia and EMT pathways linked to immune exhaustion and disease progression.

The paper identifies atypical B cells (ABCs) as mediators of poor response to BCG immunotherapy in high-risk NMIBC patients, linking their expansion and FCRL5 expression to early recurrence.

This study identifies increased stromal densities of B cells, CD103+ cells, and CD163+ M2-like macrophages as predictors of poor clinical outcomes in BCG-treated NMIBC patients.
