Loss of Primary Cilia Protein IFT20 Dysregulates Lymphatic Vessel Patterning in Development and Inflammation

open access: yesFrontiers in Cell and Developmental Biology, 2021
Microenvironmental signals produced during development or inflammation stimulate lymphatic endothelial cells to undergo lymphangiogenesis, in which they sprout, proliferate, and migrate to expand the vascular network.

Lymphatic expression of CLEVER-1 in breast cancer and its relationship with lymph node metastasis [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
BACKGROUND Mechanisms regulating breast cancer lymph node metastasis are unclear. Staining of CLEVER-1 (common lymphatic endothelial and vascular endothelial receptor-1) in human breast tumors was used, along with in vitro techniques, to assess ...

Treatment-associated remodeling of the pancreatic cancer endothelium at single-cell resolution

open access: yesFrontiers in Oncology, 2022
Pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) is one of the most treatment refractory and lethal malignancies. The diversity of endothelial cell (EC) lineages in the tumor microenvironment (TME) impacts the efficacy of antineoplastic therapies, which in turn ...

Illuminating New Frontiers: Exploring the Photosensitizing Potential of Passiflora Species in Combating Methicillin‐Resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) and Their Infection in Senescent Mice

open access: yesAdvanced Biology, EarlyView.
This study investigates the photosensitizing potential of Passiflora cincinnata in Antimicrobial Photodynamic Therapy (aPDT) against skin infection caused by Methicillin‐resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) in a senescent murine model. The P. cincinnata exhibits antimicrobial activity, with reduced bacterial load, lower leukocyte infiltration, and ...

FOXP3 Polymorphism and Upregulation of the CXCL12‐CXCR4‐SNAIL Axis with High Infiltration of M2TAM by STAT3/NFKB Pathways Influence the Survival of Cervical Cancer Patients

open access: yesAdvanced Biology, EarlyView.
This study highlights how cervical carcinoma progression is shaped by immune–tumor interactions within the TME. M2‐TAM infiltration, regulated through STAT3/NF‐κB and linked to CXCL12–CXCR4, promotes immune suppression, angiogenesis, and poor survival.

Lymphatic vascularisation and involvement of Lyve-1+ macrophages in the human onchocerca nodule. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2009
Onchocerciasis, caused by the filarial nematode Onchocerca volvulus, is a parasitic disease leading to debilitating skin disease and blindness, with major economic and social consequences. The pathology of onchocerciasis is principally considered to be a

Systems biology in inflammatory bowel diseases [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Purpose of review: Ulcerative colitis (UC) and Crohn’s Disease (CD) are the two predominant types of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), affecting over 1.4 million individuals in the US.

Precise Quantification of Angiogenesis in 3D Biomaterials Using in Vitro CAM Models: Enhancing 3Rs in Research and Minimizing in Vivo Dependency

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
The study develops elastin–fibrin scaffolds and evaluates angiogenesis using the chorioallantoic membrane (CAM) model. Advanced imaging with confocal microscopy and Indocyanine Green dye enables precise 3D quantification of vascular networks. Findings demonstrate superior microvessel visualization compared to micro‐CT using Microfil and Optiray 350 ...

VEGFR-3 signaling regulates triglyceride retention and absorption in the intestine [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
The lymphatic system transports dietary lipids absorbed and packaged as chylomicrons by enterocytes, for delivery to the bloodstream. Once considered a passive drainage, chylomicron entry into intestinal lymphatic vessels, or lacteals, is now emerging to

Biomaterial Strategies for Targeted Intracellular Delivery to Phagocytes

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Phagocytes are essential to a functional immune system, and their behavior defines disease outcomes. Engineered particles offer a strategic opportunity to target phagocytes, harnessing inflammatory modulation in disease. By tuning features like size, shape, and surface, these systems can modulate immune responses and improve targeted treatment for a ...
