B-cell performance in chemotherapy: Unravelling the mystery of B-cell therapeutic potential
• Chemotherapy can inhibit B-cell proliferation and alter subset distributions and functions, including factor secretion, receptor signalling, and costimulation. • Chemotherapy can modulate complex B-cell–T-cell interactions with variable effects on anti-tumour immunity • Targeting B-cell surface markers or signalling improves chemotherapy responses, blocks immune evasion and inhibits tumour growth. • Critical knowledge gaps remain regarding B-cell interactions in TME, B-cell chemoresistance mechanisms, TLS biology, heterogeneity, spatial distributions, chemotherapy drug selection and B-cell targets that future studies should address.
