Connexin-45 is expressed in mouse lymphatic endothelium and required for lymphatic valve function

open access: yesJCI Insight
The expression and functional relevance of the gap junction molecule connexin-45 (Cx45; GJC1) in lymphatic endothelium were not previously known. We found that Cx45 was expressed widely in the endothelium of murine lymphatics, in both valve and nonvalve ...

Lymphatic endothelium: a new frontier of metastasis research

open access: yesNature Cell Biology, 2002
The vascular endothelium is a dynamic tissue with many active functions. Until recently, endothelial cell (EC) biology studies have used cultured ECs from various organs; these cell lines are considered representative of the blood vascular endothelium ...

The Lymphatic Endothelium in the Context of Radioimmuno-Oncology

open access: yesCancers, 2022
The study of lymphatic tumor vasculature has been gaining interest in the context of cancer immunotherapy. These vessels constitute conduits for immune cells’ transit toward the lymph nodes, and they endow tumors with routes to metastasize to the lymph nodes and, from them, toward distant sites.

Lymphatic endothelium in health and disease [PDF]

open access: yesCell and Tissue Research, 2008
The lymphatic vascular system has an important role in the maintenance of tissue fluid pressure homeostasis, in the mediation of the afferent immune response via recruitment of antigen-presenting cells toward draining lymph nodes, and in the intestinal absorption of dietary lipids.

Lymphatic endothelium [PDF]

open access: yesThe Journal of Cell Biology, 2003
The lymphatic microvasculature is uniquely adapted for the continuous removal of interstitial fluid and proteins, and is an important point of entry for leukocytes and tumor cells. The traditional view that lymphatic capillaries are passive participants in these tasks is currently being challenged.
