Hematopoietic Stem Cells Contribute to Lymphatic Endothelium. [PDF]
Abstract The lymphatic system plays an important physiological role in vascular and immune homeostasis. Lymphatic vessel function is implicated in a number of pathological conditions including tumor metastasis and impaired wound healing. The identity and origin of lymphatic endothelial precursors is poorly understood.

Mast cell modulation of the vascular and lymphatic endothelium. [PDF]
AbstractMast cells (MCs) promote a wide range of localized and systemic inflammatory responses. Their involvement in immediate as well as chronic inflammatory reactions at both local and distal sites points to an extraordinarily powerful immunoregulatory capacity with spatial and temporal versatility.

Connexin-45 is expressed in mouse lymphatic endothelium and required for lymphatic valve function. [PDF]
The expression and functional relevance of the gap junction molecule connexin-45 (Cx45; GJC1) in lymphatic endothelium were not previously known. We found that Cx45 was expressed widely in the endothelium of murine lymphatics, in both valve and nonvalve regions.

The lymphatic microvasculature is uniquely adapted for the continuous removal of interstitial fluid and proteins, and is an important point of entry for leukocytes and tumor cells. The traditional view that lymphatic capillaries are passive participants in these tasks is currently being challenged.

Lymphatic endothelium stimulates melanoma metastasis and invasion via MMP14-dependent Notch3 and β1-integrin activation. [PDF]
Lymphatic invasion and lymph node metastasis correlate with poor clinical outcome in melanoma. However, the mechanisms of lymphatic dissemination in distant metastasis remain incompletely understood.

Calcium and electrical dynamics in lymphatic endothelium [PDF]
Key points Endothelial cell function in resistance arteries integrates Ca2+ signalling with hyperpolarization to promote relaxation of smooth muscle cells and increase tissue blood flow. Whether complementary signalling occurs in lymphatic endothelium is unknown.

Podoplanin immunopositive lymphatic vessels at the implant interface in a rat model of osteoporotic fractures [PDF]
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

The lymphatic endothelium of the avian wing is of somitic origin [PDF]
It has recently been shown that there are lymphangioblasts in the early avian wing bud, but fate map studies on the origin of these cells have not yet been performed. The lymphatics in the wings of 10-day-old chick and quail embryos are characterized by both the position along with all major blood vascular routes and by the Vascular Endothelial Growth ...
