Abstract
In 2024, the American Cancer Society projected that about 89,190 people will be diagnosed with some kind of lymphoma in the United States. A tumor’s microenvironment, or TME, is the foundation to the survival, growth, and spread of cancer in the body. The tumor and its microenvironment are constantly interacting with each other in the way that the TME provides for the tumor, giving it the space and the nutrients it needs to grow. However, sometimes the TME and the tumor can interact negatively. Understanding the structure, organization, and spatial composition of a TME is critical to finding the best treatment for specific tumors and cancers. This article will focus on the structure and function of a TME, the specifics on B-cell lymphoma tumor’s TME, and what treatments paths that should be taken based on a tumor’s microenvironment.
