Research Progress on Intracranial Lymphatic Circulation and Its Involvement in Disorders
Frontiers in Neurology, 2022 The lymphatic system is an important part of the circulatory system, as an auxiliary system of the vein, which has the functions of immune defense, maintaining the stability of the internal environment, and regulating the pressure of the tissue.

Blood flow-induced Notch activation and endothelial migration enable vascular remodeling in zebrafish embryos. [PDF]
, 2018 Arteries and veins are formed independently by different types of endothelial cells (ECs). In vascular remodeling, arteries and veins become connected and some arteries become veins. It is unclear how ECs in transforming vessels change their type and how

Role of Bone Marrow-Derived Lymphatic Endothelial Progenitor Cells for Lymphatic Neovascularization [PDF]
Trends in Cardiovascular Medicine, 2011 The lymphatic vasculature plays a pivotal role in maintaining tissue fluid homeostasis, immune surveillance, and lipid uptake in the gastrointestinal organs. Therefore, impaired function of the lymphatic vessels caused by genetic defects, infection, trauma, or surgery leads to the abnormal accrual of lymph fluid in the tissue and culminates in the ...

A Human‐Based Skin‐Lymphoreticular Model‐on‐Chip to Emulate Inflammatory Skin Conditions
Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.A human‐based lymphoreticular (LR) model was developed through guided self‐assembly and integrated in a skin‐lymphoreticular co‐culture in a microfluidic organ‐on‐chip to mimic interactions between skin and its draining lymph nodes. The human‐based skin‐lymphoreticular model resembles a minimally functional unit that allows to study interactions ...

A Review of Mathematical Models for the Formation of\ud Vascular Networks [PDF]
, 2012 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 ...

VEGF-mediated signal transduction in lymphatic endothelial cells
Pathophysiology, 2010 The VEGF family of angiogenic ligands consists of VEGFA, VEGFB, VEGFC, VEGFD and placenta growth factor, PlGF. These growth factors bind in an overlapping pattern to three receptor tyrosine kinases, denoted VEGFR1, VEGFR2 and VEGFR3. Originally, VEGFA (the prototype VEGF) was described as a master regulator of vascular endothelial cell biology in vitro
