Obesity Alters the Vascular Morphology and VEGF‐A Signaling in Adipose Tissue
Obesity alters cell geometry and vessel morphology in mice adipose tissue by increasing adipocyte size by 78% and reducing vessel density by 51%, while vessel size and capillary basement membrane thickness remain unchanged. Obesity also affects angiogenesis, which is mediated by vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) binding kinetics.

Lymphangiogenesis and cancer metastasis
Lymphangiogenesis remains a fascinating biological process that plays a crucial role in both normal tissue development and several lymphatic diseases. The last few years have witnessed a rapid progression in understanding the development and regulation of the lymphatic system which provided insight on several pathological processes including cancer ...

A Review of Mathematical Models for the Formation of\ud Vascular Networks [PDF]
Mainly two mechanisms are involved in the formation of blood vasculature: vasculogenesis and angiogenesis. The former consists of the formation of a capillary-like network from either a dispersed or a monolayered population of endothelial cells ...

Exercise‐Induced Cardiac Lymphatic Remodeling Mitigates Inflammation in the Aging Heart
Exercise improves cardiac lymphatic architecture and function in the aged mouse. Aged hearts show reduced lymphatic vascular density, more dilated vessels, and increased peri‐lymphatic inflammation and fibrosis. Exercise training of the aged mouse increases lymph vessel density and sprouting, reverses their dilation, reduces inflammation and fibrosis ...

Mast Cells, Angiogenesis and Lymphangiogenesis in Human Gastric Cancer
Gastric cancer is diagnosed in nearly one million new patients each year and it remains the second leading cause of cancer-related deaths worldwide. Although gastric cancer represents a heterogeneous group of diseases, chronic inflammation has been shown

Abstract Background and Purpose The C‐type lectin‐like receptor‐2 (CLEC‐2) is a platelet receptor for the endogenous ligand podoplanin. This interaction contributes to several (patho)physiological processes, such as lymphangiogenesis, preservation of blood and lymphatic vessel integrity organ development, and tumour metastasis.

This study unveiled the mechanism wherein IGF2BP3 was overexpressed in human LUAD tissues, promoted cell migration and invasion, EMT, lymphangiogenesis, and lymph node metastasis by binding the m6A site of the 3′UTR region of SRC and maintaining its stability to activate STAT3 signaling pathway, and promote VEGFC expression in LUAD.
