    When cancer cells leave the primary tumor to seed in other organs, they need to seek the help of different cell types in distinct environments to make their journey successful. Lymph nodes (LN), which counterintuitively are centers for T-cell-antigen priming, are the first metastatic relay before cancer cells disseminate to distant organs. Thereby,...
