Spatial proteomics of tertiary lymphoid structures reveals correlation with immunotherapy response in Merkel cell carcinoma

This study demonstrated a significant positive correlation between the number of TLS and ICI response in MCC. Additionally, our results suggest that the immune composition and spatial configuration within TLS may be important determinants of ICI efficacy.
