Schematic representation of lymph node and cells classification [4–6]: (A) FRC in the T cell zone (TRC)− gp38+ CD157+ CD31−. (B) FRC around blood vessels (pericytes) gp38− CD157+ CD31−. (C) FRC in the marginal zone (MRC) gp38+ CD31− CXCL13+. (D) Blood vessel endothelial cells (BEC) gp38− CD157+ CD31+. (E) Lymphatic endothelial cells (LEC) gp38+ CD157− CD31+ (E).
