Lymphatic endothelial cells of the lymph node

Nature Reviews Immunology, 2020
The influx and efflux of cells and antigens to and from the draining lymph nodes largely take place through the subcapsular, cortical and medullary sinus systems. Recent analyses in mice and humans have revealed unexpected diversity in the lymphatic endothelial cells, which form the distinct regions of the sinuses.

Heterogeneity and Plasticity of Lymphatic Endothelial Cells [PDF]

Seminars in Thrombosis and Hemostasis, 2010
Endothelial cells are found in most organs and tissues in our body. Despite their apparent morphological and functional similarities, endothelial cells exhibit remarkable heterogeneity and plasticity. In a strict sense, no two endothelial cells are identical in terms of their biological, immunological, functional, metabolic, morphological, and ...

Murine Dermal Lymphatic Endothelial Cell Isolation

Journal of Visualized Experiments, 2023
The lymphatic system participates in the regulation of immune surveillance, lipid absorption, and tissue fluid balance. The isolation of murine lymphatic endothelial cells is an important process for lymphatic research, as it allows the performance of in vitro and biochemical experiments on the isolated cells.

Lymphatic endothelial cell inclusion bodies

Journal of Ultrastructure Research, 1980
Paracrystalline, compact tubular, and myeloid inclusion bodies were observed in endothelial cells from canine renal, mesenteric, and thoracic duct lymphatics. Paracrystalline inclusions were membrane bound and were composed of filaments organized into closely packed hexagons (18 nm across).

Harvesting and cryopreservation of lymphatic endothelial cells for lymphatic tissue engineering

Cryobiology, 2010
In order to provide a suitable source of cells for lymphatic tissue engineering, the present study was designed to investigate techniques for harvesting and cryopreservation of human dermal lymphatic endothelial cells (LECs) in vitro. The LECs were isolated from children's foreskins and then cultured in endothelial growth medium-2 MV (EGM-2-MV) with 5%

Establishment of Rat Lymphatic Endothelial Cell Line

Microcirculation, 2003
The objective of the present study was to establish a rat lymphatic endothelial cell line and then to investigate the morphological and immunohistochemical properties of the cells.The lymphatic endothelial cells of rat thoracic ducts were isolated enzymatically by trypsin digestion and were cultured in endothelium growth medium (EGM)-2 in an atmosphere

Gene expression profile of lymphatic endothelial cells

Cell Biology International, 2011
The lymphatic system was first described at around the same time as the blood circulation centuries ago, but the biological function elucidation of LECs (lymphatic endothelial cells) is far less than that of BVECs (blood vascular endothelial cells). Since the discovery of molecular markers for LECs and exploration of lymphatic role in tumour metastasis,

Mechanotransduction in lymphatic endothelial cells.

Lymphology, 2007
Initial lymphatic vessel endothelial cells are connected to the surrounding elastic fibers by fibrillin anchoring filaments that have been hypothesized to favor interstitial fluid drainage in edema pulling apart interendothelial junctions. We hypothesized a biochemical mechanism involving mechanotransduction. This study was designed to verify whether a

Histochemical analysis of lymphatic endothelial cells in lymphostasis

Microscopy Research and Technique, 2001
AbstractThe ultrastructure of endothelial cells of intestinal lymphatics and the thoracic duct (TD) and the relation to lymphostasis were examined in rats and monkeys. Localization of 5′‐nucleotidase (5′‐Nase) and endothelial nitric oxide synthase (eNOS) was studied.

Lymphatic Endothelial Cells, Lymphangiogenesis, and Extracellular Matrix

Lymphatic Research and Biology, 2006
Exciting studies involving the molecular regulation of lymphangiogenesis in lymphatic-associated disorders (e.g., wound healing, lymphedema and tumor metastasis) have focused renewed attention on the intrinsic relationship between lymphatic endothelial cells (LECs) and extracellular matrix (ECM) microenvironment.
