Initial afferent lymphatic vessels controlling outbound leukocyte traffic from skin to lymph nodes.

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology, 2013
Tissue drains fluid and macromolecules through lymphatic vessels, which are lined by a specialized endothelium that expresses peculiar differentiation proteins, not found in blood vessels (i.e: LYVE-1, Podoplanin, PROX-1 and VEGFR-3).

Shape and Function of Interstitial Chemokine CCL21 Gradients Are Independent of Heparan Sulfates Produced by Lymphatic Endothelium

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology, 2021
Gradients of chemokines and growth factors guide migrating cells and morphogenetic processes. Migration of antigen-presenting dendritic cells from the interstitium into the lymphatic system is dependent on chemokine CCL21, which is secreted by ...

The Road Less Traveled: Regulation of Leukocyte Migration Across Vascular and Lymphatic Endothelium by Galectins [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Leukocyte entry from the blood into inflamed tissues, exit into the lymphatics, and migration to regional lymph nodes are all crucial processes for mounting an effective adaptive immune response.

KSHV Induction of Angiogenic and Lymphangiogenic Phenotypes

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2012
Kaposi’s Sarcoma is a highly vascularized tumor supporting large amounts of neo-angiogenesis. The major cell type in KS tumors is the spindle cell, a cell that expresses markers of lymphatic endothelium. KSHV, the etiologic agent of KS, is found in the

PD-L1 signaling selectively regulates T cell lymphatic transendothelial migration

open access: yesNature Communications, 2022
The Programmed death-1 (PD-1) and its ligand PD-L1 are critical checkpoints in the regulation of immune responses. Here the authors implicate PD-L1 signalling at lymphatic endothelium in the regulation of transendothelial migration of T cells.

Targeting local lymphatics to ameliorate heterotopic ossification via FGFR3-BMPR1a pathway

open access: yesNature Communications, 2021
Different types of mesenchymal progenitors participate in ectopic bone formation. Here, the authors show Col2+ lineage cells adopt a lymphatic endothelium cell fate, which regulates local inflammatory microenvironment after trauma, thus influencing ...

Cellular Origins of the Lymphatic Endothelium: Implications for Cancer Lymphangiogenesis [PDF]

open access: yesFrontiers in Physiology, 2020
The lymphatic system plays important roles in physiological and pathological conditions. During cancer progression in particular, lymphangiogenesis can exert both positive and negative effects. While the formation of tumor associated lymphatic vessels correlates with metastatic dissemination, increased severity and poor patient prognosis, the presence ...

Metastatic niche shaped by host factors influences disseminated cancer cell fate

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Metastasis is shaped not only by cancer cells but also by the environments they encounter. This review explores how factors such as aging, diet, the microbiome, lifestyle, and environmental exposures remodel organ‐specific niches in the lung, liver, bone, and brain, influencing where metastatic cells survive, remain dormant, or grow, and ultimately ...

Effect of hepatoma H22 on lymphatic endothelium in vitro

open access: yesWorld Journal of Gastroenterology, 2004
To determine the effect of metastatic hepatoma cells on lymphangioma-derived endothelium, and to establish in vitro model systems for assessing metastasis-related response of lymphatic endothelium.Benign lymphangioma, induced by intraperitoneal injection of the incomplete Freund's adjuvant in BALB/c mice, was embedded in fibrin gel or digested and then

Cancer‐associated mutations in endometriosis reframe a benign disease through molecular oncology

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
This review aims to comprehensively analyse cancer‐associated somatic mutations (CAMs) present in endometriotic lesions, emphasizing their biological roles, spatial distribution and implications for translational applications in medicine. By contextualizing a benign state within a genomic framework, this analysis seeks to establish its value as a ...
