Overview of the meningeal lymphatic vessels in aging and central nervous system disorders

open access: yesCell & Bioscience, 2022
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]

open access: yes, 2015
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 ...

ALK1 controls hepatic vessel formation, angiodiversity, and angiocrine functions in hereditary hemorrhagic telangiectasia of the liver

open access: yesHepatology, EarlyView., 2022
Hepatic endothelial Alk1 signaling protects from development of vascular malformations while maintaining organ‐specific endothelial differentiation and angiocrine portmanteau of the names Wingless and Int‐1 signaling. Abstract Background and Aims In hereditary hemorrhagic telangiectasia (HHT), severe liver vascular malformations are associated with ...

Human brain arteriovenous malformations express lymphatic‐associated genes

open access: yesAnnals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, 2014
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]

open access: yesCell Research, 2020
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]

open access: yes, 2015
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

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
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.

The nasal lymphatic route of CSF outflow: implications for neurodegenerative disease diagnosis and monitoring

open access: yesAnimal Cells and Systems
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
