Overview of the meningeal lymphatic vessels in aging and central nervous system disorders
In the aging process and central nervous system (CNS) diseases, the functions of the meningeal lymphatic vessels (MLVs) are impaired. Alterations in MLVs have been observed in aging-related neurodegenerative diseases, brain tumors, and even ...

The role of the lymphatic system in cholesterol transport [PDF]
Reverse cholesterol transport (RCT) is the pathway for removal of peripheral tissue cholesterol and involves transport of cholesterol back to liver for excretion, starting from cellular cholesterol efflux facilitated by lipid-free apolipoprotein A1 ...

Human brain arteriovenous malformations express lymphatic‐associated genes
AbstractObjectiveBrain arteriovenous malformations (AVMs) are devastating, hemorrhage‐prone, cerebrovascular lesions characterized by well‐defined feeding arteries, draining vein(s) and the absence of a capillary bed. The endothelial cells (ECs) that comprise AVMs exhibit a loss of arterial and venous specification.

Meningeal lymphatic vessels regulate brain tumor drainage and immunity [PDF]
AbstractRecent studies have shown that meningeal lymphatic vessels (MLVs), which are located both dorsally and basally beneath the skull, provide a route for draining macromolecules and trafficking immune cells from the central nervous system (CNS) into cervical lymph nodes (CLNs), and thus represent a potential therapeutic target for treating ...

Proteomic and epigenomic markers of sepsis-induced delirium (SID) [PDF]
In elderly population sepsis is one of the leading causes of intensive care unit (ICU) admissions in the United States. Sepsis-induced delirium (SID) is the most frequent cause of delirium in ICU (Martin et al., 2010). Together delirium and SID represent

COMP–PMEPA1 axis promotes epithelial‐to‐mesenchymal transition in breast cancer cells
This study reveals that cartilage oligomeric matrix protein (COMP) promotes epithelial‐to‐mesenchymal transition (EMT) in breast cancer. We identify PMEPA1 (protein TMEPAI) as a novel COMP‐binding partner that mediates EMT via binding to the TSP domains of COMP, establishing the COMP–PMEPA1 axis as a key EMT driver in breast cancer.

Cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) plays a crucial role in the brain's lymphatics as it traverses the central nervous system (CNS). Its primary function is to facilitate the outward transport of waste. Among the various CSF outflow pathways, the route through the
