Lymphatic vascular morphogenesis in development, physiology, and disease [PDF]

, 2011
The lymphatic vasculature constitutes a highly specialized part of the vascular system that is essential for the maintenance of interstitial fluid balance, uptake of dietary fat, and immune response. Recently, there has been an increased awareness of the

How effective is integrated vector management against malaria and lymphatic filariasis where the diseases are transmitted by the same vector? [PDF]

, 2014
The opportunity to integrate vector management across multiple vector-borne diseases is particularly plausible for malaria and lymphatic filariasis (LF) control where both diseases are transmitted by the same vector.

Profound and selective lymphopaenia in primary lymphatic anomaly patients demonstrates the significance of lymphatic-lymphocyte interactions

Frontiers in Immunology, 2023
IntroductionThe lymphatic system has a pivotal role in immune homeostasis. To better understand this, we investigated the impact of Primary Lymphatic Anomalies (PLA) on lymphocyte numbers and phenotype.MethodsThe study comprised (i) a retrospective ...

Axillary Web Syndrome Evidence for Lymphatic Origin with Thrombosis [PDF]

, 2020
Background: The axillary web syndrome (AWS) occurs in the axilla and on the frontal side of the upper arm and sometimes along the forearm to the thumb. The cord is painful, particularly on movement, and can therefore be very distressing for the patient ...

Lymphatic Connexins and Pannexins in Health and Disease [PDF]

International Journal of Molecular Sciences, 2021
This review highlights current knowledge on the expression and function of connexins and pannexins, transmembrane channel proteins that play an important role in intercellular communication, in both the developing and mature lymphatic vasculature. A particular focus is given to the involvement of these proteins in functions of the healthy lymphatic ...

What is needed to eradicate lymphatic filariasis? : A model-based assessment on the impact of scaling up mass drug administration programs [PDF]

, 2015
Lymphatic filariasis (LF) is a neglected tropical disease for which more than a billion people in 73 countries are thought to be at-risk. At a global level, the efforts against LF are designed as an elimination program. However, current efforts appear to
