Abstract

SUMMARY Stromal cells (SCs) establish the compartmentalization of lymphoid tissues critical to the immune response. However, the full diversity of lymph node (LN) SCs remains undefined. Using droplet‐based single‐cell RNA sequencing, we identified nine peripheral LN non‐endothelial SC clusters. Included are the established subsets, Ccl19hi T‐zone reticular cells (TRCs), marginal reticular cells, follicular dendritic cells (FDCs), and perivascular cells. We also identified Ccl19lo TRCs, likely including cholesterol‐25‐hydroxylase+ cells located at the T‐zone perimeter, Cxcl9+ TRCs in the T‐zone and interfollicular region, CD34+ SCs in the capsule and medullary vessel adventitia, indolethylamine N‐methyltransferase+ SCs in the medullary cords, and Nr4a1+ SCs in several niches. These data help define how transcriptionally distinct LN SCs support niche‐restricted immune functions and provide evidence that many SCs are in an activated state. Graphical Abstract Figure.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
