Molecular Mechanisms Controlling Lymphatic Endothelial Junction Integrity
Frontiers in Cell and Developmental Biology, 2021 The lymphatic system is essential for lipid absorption/transport from the digestive system, maintenance of tissue fluid and protein homeostasis, and immune surveillance.

Endothelial cell plasticity: how to become and remain a lymphatic endothelial cell [PDF]
Development, 2010 Lineage commitment and differentiation into mature cell types are mostly considered to be unidirectional and irreversible processes. However, recent results have challenged this by showing that terminally differentiated cell types can be reprogrammed into other cell types, an important step towards devising strategies for gene therapy and tissue ...

Widespread distribution of lymphatic vessels in human dura mater remote from sinus veins
Frontiers in Cell and Developmental Biology, 2023 Background and purpose: Previous experimental studies have shown that meningeal lymphatic vessels are located primarily along the walls of the dural sinus veins.

Regulation of T-cell Tolerance by Lymphatic Endothelial Cells [PDF]
Journal of Clinical & Cellular Immunology, 2014 Lymphatic endothelial cells are most often thought of as structural cells that form the lymphatic vasculature, which transports fluid out of peripheral tissues and transports antigens and antigen presenting cells to lymph nodes. Recently, it has been shown that lymphatic endothelial cells also dynamically respond to and influence the immune response in

A robust in vitro model for trans-lymphatic endothelial migration
Scientific Reports, 2017 Trans-endothelial migration (TEM) is essential for leukocyte circulation. While much is known about trans-blood endothelial migration, far less is known about trans-lymphatic endothelial migration.

Podoplanin immunopositive lymphatic vessels at the implant interface in a rat model of osteoporotic fractures [PDF]
, 2013 Insertion of bone substitution materials accelerates healing of osteoporotic fractures. Biodegradable materials are preferred for application in osteoporotic patients to avoid a second surgery for implant replacement. Degraded implant fragments are often

Tolerogenic properties of lymphatic endothelial cells are controlled by the lymph node microenvironment. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2014 Peripheral self-tolerance eliminates lymphocytes specific for tissue-specific antigens not encountered in the thymus. Recently, we demonstrated that lymphatic endothelial cells in mice directly express peripheral tissue antigens, including tyrosinase ...

Antigen-presenting cells and antigen presentation in tertiary lymphoid organs [PDF]
, 2016 Tertiary lymphoid organs (TLOs) form in territorialized niches of peripheral tissues characterized by the presence of antigens; however, little is known about mechanism(s) of antigen handling by ectopic lymphoid structures.

Cells with Many Talents: Lymphatic Endothelial Cells in the Brain Meninges
Cells, 2021 The lymphatic system serves key functions in maintaining fluid homeostasis, the uptake of dietary fats in the small intestine, and the trafficking of immune cells. Almost all vascularized peripheral tissues and organs contain lymphatic vessels. The brain
