AbstractThe lymphatic system is essential for fluid homeostasis, immune responses, and fat absorption, and is involved in many pathological processes, including tumor metastasis and lymphedema. Despite its importance, progress in understanding the origins and early development of this system has been hampered by lack of defining molecular markers and ...

There is controversy regarding whether lymphatic vessels are present or absent in bone. Although lymphangiomas have been described in bone, lymphatic vessels have not been identified morphologically with certainty in any other benign or malignant bone tumors or in normal human bone. In this study, we determined by immunohistochemistry, using 2 specific

The Lymphatic System in Obesity, Insulin Resistance, and Cardiovascular Diseases
Obesity, insulin resistance, dyslipidemia, and hypertension are fundamental clinical manifestations of the metabolic syndrome. Studies over the last few decades have implicated chronic inflammation and microvascular remodeling in the development of ...

Leucocyte Trafficking via the Lymphatic Vasculature— Mechanisms and Consequences
The lymphatics fulfill a vital physiological function as the conduits through which leucocytes traffic between the tissues and draining lymph nodes for the initiation and modulation of immune responses.

Lymphatic Mapping with Multi-Lymphosome Indocyanine Green Lymphography in Legs with Lymphedema
It is observed that the locations of the most functional lymphatic vessels in the lymphedematous limbs can differ significantly from those in healthy limbs. The aim of this study was to elucidate the lymphatic map of lymphedematous limbs.
