Follicular Lymphoma Microenvironment: An Intricate Network Ready for Therapeutic Intervention.

ABSTRACT: Follicular Lymphoma (FL), the most common indolent non-Hodgkin's B cell lymphoma, is a paradigm of the immune microenvironment's contribution to disease onset, progression, and heterogeneity. Over the last few years, state-of-the-art technologies, including whole-exome sequencing, single-cell RNA sequencing, and mass cytometry, have precisely dissected the specific cellular phenotypes present in the FL microenvironment network and their role in the disease. In this already complex picture, the presence of recurring mutations, including KMT2D, CREBBP, EZH2, and TNFRSF14, have a prominent contributory role, with some of them finely tuning this exquisite dependence of FL on its microenvironment. This precise characterization of the enemy (FL) and its allies (microenvironment) has paved the wa
