Scientists with the Fralin Biomedical Research Institute at VTC have created an engineered model of the supportive tissue found within a lymph node to study human health. Working with scientists at ...

Structure of a lymph node showing the typical division into different territories for immune cells: B cells are shown in red, T cells in blue, lymphatic vessels in yellow, and stromal cells in cyan.

Tumors, such as melanoma, release nanovesicles called exosomes (gray) that travel and lodge in the lymph nodes. There they corrupt the behavior of lymph cells. The lymphatic vessels (green) branch out ...

Lymph node metastasis occurs in "metastatic" lymph nodes, lymph nodes that contain cancer cells that have spread from elsewhere in the body. A part of the immune system, lymph nodes are tiny ...

If you've been hopping between arms for booster shots, a new study suggests that your lymph nodes remember exactly where you first got jabbed and perform far better when you return to that same arm.

The lymph nodes in the armpit are often the first place breast cancer spreads to. Everyone with invasive breast cancer currently has to undergo surgery to remove lymph nodes to check for cancer cells.
