From: The extent of inflammatory infiltration in primary cancer tissues is associated with lymphomagenesis in immunodeficient mice

Figure 2

A hypothetical process of lymphomagenesis based on observation in different cases.

(a) The original cancer tissues may harbor a small quantity of EBV-infected inflammation cells (BCGA070). (b) These EBV-infected inflammation cells multiply in immunodeficient NOD/SCID mice, even with the tumor cells (BCCO9116P2) and (c) may ultimately form a solid tumor consist of lymphoma cells (BCGA032P4). Scale bars, 300 μm.
