Abstract: Ectopic lymphoid neogenesis often occurs in the target tissues of patients with chronic rheumatic autoimmune diseases such as rheumatoid arthritis, Sjögren syndrome and other connective tissue disorders, including systemic lupus erythematosus and myositis. However, the… read more here.

DOI: 10.1183/13993003.01873-2016
Abstract: We aimed to characterise lymphoid neogenesis in bronchiectasis and cystic fibrosis (CF) lungs and to examine the role of bacterial infection. Lymphoid aggregates were examined using immunohistochemical staining and morphometric analysis in surgical lung sections… read more here.
