Culturing purifies murine lymph node lymphatic endothelium. [PDF]
Lymphat Res Biol, 2014 Lymph node (LN) lymphatic sinuses transport lymph, cells, and antigens from the periphery through the LN. The lymphatic endothelium lining these sinuses appears to be an important contributor to the lymph node immune response. It has been challenging to obtain sufficient LN lymphatic endothelial cells for investigation of their functions, as they are ...

Emerging roles of lymphatic endothelium in regulating adaptive immunity. [PDF]
J Clin Invest, 2014 Emerging research on the roles of stromal cells in modulating adaptive immune responses has included a new focus on lymphatic endothelial cells (LECs). LECs are presumably the first cells that come into direct contact with peripheral antigens, cytokines, danger signals, and immune cells travelling from peripheral tissues to lymph nodes.

Safeguarding lymphatic identity: cooperative Erg and Fli1 activity in lymphatic vascular homeostasis [PDF]
The Journal of Clinical InvestigationAlthough transcriptional programs driving lymphatic endothelial cell (LEC) specification are being increasingly characterized, far less is known about the postnatal mechanisms that preserve lymphatic vessel identity and function. In this issue of the JCI,

The Journal of Cell Biology, 2003 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.

Frontiers in Physiology, 2021 The lymphatic system is a vascular system comprising modified lymphatic endothelial cells, lymph nodes and other lymphoid organs. The system has diverse, but critical functions in both physiology and pathology, and forms an interface between the blood ...

Lymphatic Clearance of Immune Cells in Cardiovascular Disease
Cells, 2021 Recent advances in our understanding of the lymphatic system, its function, development, and role in pathophysiology have changed our views on its importance. Historically thought to be solely involved in the transport of tissue fluid, lipids, and immune
