B cells in COVID-19 and cancer Session 2 was dedicated to the role of B cells both in cancer and in COVID-19. Dendritic cells originating in the tumor pick up tumor antigens and traffic to the tumor-draining lymph nodes, where they present antigens either ineffectively or in a tolerogenic fashion to tumor-specific T cells.
