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

KSHV Induction of Angiogenic and Lymphangiogenic Phenotypes
Kaposi’s Sarcoma is a highly vascularized tumor supporting large amounts of neo-angiogenesis. The major cell type in KS tumors is the spindle cell, a cell that expresses markers of lymphatic endothelium. KSHV, the etiologic agent of KS, is found in the

Deregulation of HDAC5 by Viral Interferon Regulatory Factor 3 Plays an Essential Role in Kaposi's Sarcoma-Associated Herpesvirus-Induced Lymphangiogenesis. [PDF]
Kaposi's sarcoma-associated herpesvirus (KSHV) is the etiologic agent for Kaposi's sarcoma (KS), which is one of the most common HIV-associated neoplasms.

PD-L1 signaling selectively regulates T cell lymphatic transendothelial migration
The Programmed death-1 (PD-1) and its ligand PD-L1 are critical checkpoints in the regulation of immune responses. Here the authors implicate PD-L1 signalling at lymphatic endothelium in the regulation of transendothelial migration of T cells.

Targeting local lymphatics to ameliorate heterotopic ossification via FGFR3-BMPR1a pathway
Different types of mesenchymal progenitors participate in ectopic bone formation. Here, the authors show Col2+ lineage cells adopt a lymphatic endothelium cell fate, which regulates local inflammatory microenvironment after trauma, thus influencing ...

Lymphatic expression of CLEVER-1 in breast cancer and its relationship with lymph node metastasis [PDF]
BACKGROUND Mechanisms regulating breast cancer lymph node metastasis are unclear. Staining of CLEVER-1 (common lymphatic endothelial and vascular endothelial receptor-1) in human breast tumors was used, along with in vitro techniques, to assess ...

VEGFR-3 signaling regulates triglyceride retention and absorption in the intestine [PDF]
The lymphatic system transports dietary lipids absorbed and packaged as chylomicrons by enterocytes, for delivery to the bloodstream. Once considered a passive drainage, chylomicron entry into intestinal lymphatic vessels, or lacteals, is now emerging to

Balance of Mechanical Forces Drives Endothelial Gap Formation and May Facilitate Cancer and Immune-Cell Extravasation [PDF]
The formation of gaps in the endothelium is a crucial process underlying both cancer and immune cell extravasation, contributing to the functioning of the immune system during infection, the unfavorable development of chronic inflammation and tumor metastasis.

Elevated expression of the chemokine-scavenging receptor D6 is associated with impaired lesion development in psoriasis [PDF]
D6 is a scavenging-receptor for inflammatory CC chemokines that are essential for resolution of inflammatory responses in mice. Here, we demonstrate that D6 plays a central role in controlling cutaneous inflammation, and that D6 deficiency is associated ...

LYVE-1 expression in the endothelium of newly formed vessels of carotid atherosclerotic plaque
Introduction.The discovery of specific markers of lymphatic endothelium, including LYVE-1, has led to a much better understanding of the structure and function of the lymphatic system.
