Immune cells journey throughout the body surveilling for signs of danger or damage. As they do, they are instructed by stationary tissue-resident stromal cells in their development, survival and function. Here, we present a Collection of research articles and reviews that discuss the players and factors involved in stromal–immune cell interactions in both health and disease. Understanding the cellular interactions and their mediators can help to identify potential therapeutic targets to promote immunity as well as to alleviate disease conditions. We gratefully acknowledge the generous support from Boehringer Ingelheim in sponsoring this Collection.
This Collection is editorially independent, produced with financial support from a third party.
