Follicular lymphoma micro-environment
A great deal of study is being done on follicular lymphoma all the time. One
area of intense study is the tumour microenvironment. This page brings you a
list of studies on this fascinating topic.
The tumour microenvironment refers to the healthy, normal cells that surround
and are inside the tumour. It is believed that perhaps it is these healthy cells
that actually control the behaviour of the follicular lymphoma. Most studies
tend to support this view, but others do not. We'll leave it up to you to
decide.
Below are some of these studies to help you get started understanding this
complex issue. But after you read those, you may wish to read the following
report by Randy Gascoyne one of the worlds foremost haematopathologists, from
the British Columbia Cancer Agency. He discusses how all this knowledge needs to
be standardized so it can be used to plan patient treatments.
