Abstract
A dearth of adequate preclinical models to faithfully mimic diffuse large B-cell lymphoma has hampered the identification of driver genes. Here, the authors present a co-culture system that enables ex vivo expansion, viral transduction and transformation of primary human germinal center B cells.
