Book Chapter Description

The presence of tertiary lymphoid structures (TLS) is correlated with prolonged patient survival in a variety of solid cancers, including melanoma. However, few methods have been described that could enable a more comprehensive understanding of the organization and functionality of TLS in solid cancers. In this chapter, we describe multiplex immunohistochemistry and microscopy approaches for identifying, characterizing, and quantifying TLS and intra-tumoral immune infiltrates in melanoma. The described methods are not limited to melanoma alone and could be used to evaluate tertiary lymphoid structures in a wide variety of human cancers.
