Lymphatic Clearance of Immune Cells in Cardiovascular Disease

open access: yesCells, 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

KSHV infection of endothelial precursor cells with lymphatic characteristics as a novel model for translational Kaposi's sarcoma studies.

open access: yesPLoS Pathogens, 2023
Kaposi's sarcoma herpesvirus (KSHV) is the etiologic agent of Kaposi's sarcoma (KS), a hyperplasia consisting of enlarged malformed vasculature and spindle-shaped cells, the main proliferative component of KS.

Is It All about Endothelial Dysfunction? Focusing on the Alteration in Endothelial Integrity as a Key Determinant of Different Pathological Mechanisms

open access: yesBiomedicines, 2022
The endothelium is composed of a monolayer of endothelial cells (ECs) covering the inner side of arterial, venous and lymphatic vessels [...]

Calcium and electrical dynamics in lymphatic endothelium [PDF]

open access: yesThe Journal of Physiology, 2017
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.

Coagulation in Lymphatic System

open access: yesFrontiers in Cardiovascular Medicine, 2021
The lymphatic system maintains homeostasis of the internal environment between the cells in tissues and the blood circulation. The coagulation state of lymph is determined by conditions of coagulation factors and lymphatic vessels. Internal obliteration,

Plasticity of blood- and lymphatic endothelial cells and marker identification. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS 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 ...

Endothelial Dysfunction: From a Pathophysiological Mechanism to a Potential Therapeutic Target

open access: yesBiomedicines, 2021
The endothelium is considered the largest organ of the body, composed of a monolayer of endothelial cells (ECs) lining the interior surface of blood and lymphatic vessels [...]
