Plasticity of blood- and lymphatic endothelial cells and marker identification. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2013 The distinction between lymphatic and blood vessels is biologically fundamental. Here we wanted to rigorously analyze the universal applicability of vascular markers and characteristics of the two widely used vascular model systems human microvascular ...

Histochemical analysis of lymphatic endothelial cells in lymphostasis [PDF]
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.

Regulation of VEGFR3 signaling in lymphatic endothelial cells. [PDF]
Front Cell Dev BiolThe receptor tyrosine kinase vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) receptor 3 (VEGFR3) is the principal transmembrane receptor responsible for sensing and coordinating cellular responses to environmental lymphangiogenic stimuli in lymphatic endothelial cells (LECs).

Molecular characterization of lymphatic endothelial cells [PDF]
Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 2002 The lymphatic microvasculature is uniquely adapted for the continuous removal of interstitial fluid and proteins and is an important entry point for leukocytes and tumor cells. Specialized functions of lymphatics suggest differences in the molecular composition of the lymphatic and blood vascular endothelium.

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

Fine filaments in lymphatic endothelial cells [PDF]
The Journal of Cell Biology, 1976 Several and various types of cells contain fine cytoplasmic filaments closely resembling the myofilaments of muscle cells (2, 18, 23, 24). In many of these cells and especially when cultured, it has been demonstrated that some of these filaments react with heavy meromyosin (HMM) in the same way as do the actin filaments of muscle cells (3, 6 7).

Cell Fate Determination of Lymphatic Endothelial Cells [PDF]
International Journal of Molecular Sciences, 2020 The lymphatic vasculature, along with the blood vasculature, is a vascular system in our body that plays important functions in fluid homeostasis, dietary fat uptake, and immune responses. Defects in the lymphatic system are associated with various diseases such as lymphedema, atherosclerosis, fibrosis, obesity, and inflammation.

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 ...

Shaping of Peripheral T Cell Responses by Lymphatic Endothelial Cells [PDF]
Frontiers in Immunology, 2017 Lymph node stromal cells (LNSCs) have newly been promoted to the rank of new modulators of T cell responses. The different non-hematopoietic cell subsets in lymph node (LN) were considered for years as a simple scaffold, forming routes and proper environment for antigen (Ag)-lymphocyte encountering.
