Abstract
Lymph nodes in various locations of the body differ in their cell composition and gene expression signatures. Here authors show that the rapid postnatal expansion of lymph nodes is governed by CD34 + stromal cells and fibroblastic reticular stromal cell progenitors, distinguished by intrinsic, microbiome-independent core epigenetic blueprints.
