Tumor metastasis and the lymphatic vasculature

open access: yesInternational Journal of Cancer, 2009
AbstractTumor‐associated lymphatic vessels act as a conduit by which disseminating tumor cells access regional lymph nodes and form metastases there. Lymph node metastasis is of major prognostic significance for many types of cancer, although lymph node metastases are themselves rarely life‐threatening.

Progression of Metastasis through Lymphatic System [PDF]

open access: yesCells, 2021
Lymph nodes are the most common sites of metastasis in cancer patients. Nodal disease status provides great prognostic power, but how lymph node metastases should be treated is under debate. Thus, it is important to understand the mechanisms by which lymph node metastases progress and how they can be targeted to provide therapeutic benefits.

Experimental lymphatic metastasis

Journal of Microscopy, 1983
SUMMARYA model of lymphatic metastasis of cancer has been established by injecting tumour cells into the rat footpad and examining the draining popliteal lymph node. The node can probably destroy only a few tumour cells; thereafter metastasis is progressive and lethal.

Lymphangiogenesis and lymphatic metastasis in breast cancer [PDF]

open access: yesPathophysiology, 2010
Lymphatic metastasis is the main prognostic factor for survival of patients with breast cancer and other epithelial malignancies. Mounting clinical and experimental data suggest that migration of tumor cells into the lymph nodes is greatly facilitated by lymphangiogenesis, a process that generates new lymphatic vessels from pre-existing lymphatics with

Lymphatic metastasis with childhood rhabdomyosarcoma

Cancer, 1977
Clinico-pathologic reviews of series of children with rhabdomyosarcoma have yielded conflicting information regarding frequency of lymphatic spread of this disease. The 264 eligible entries in the Intergroup Rhabdomyosarcoma Study (from November 1972 to September 1975) have been categorized by a prospective staging system and pre-treatment ...

Lymphatic invasion and metastasis

Experientia, 1977
The phenomenon of experimental lymphatic invasion and metastasis has been reviewed. The invasion of lymphatics must be dependent on the same factors as are involved in neoplastic invasion in generalcell motility, lack of adhesiveness, release of lytic enzymes, increase in cell population and tissue pressure and active migration of cells. The process of

Lymphatic Metastasis in the Absence of Functional Intratumor Lymphatics

Science, 2002
Lymphatic metastasis contributes to mortality from solid tumors. Whether metastasizing cancer cells reach lymph nodes via intratumor lymphatic vessels is unknown. Here, we examine functional lymphatics associated with mouse tumors expressing normal or elevated levels of vascular endothelial growth factor–C (VEGF-C), a molecule that stimulates ...

Lymphatic metastasis and its treatment

Cancer Treatment Reviews, 1987
The treatment of lymphatic metastasis depends on an understanding of its basic biology. We are still uncertain as to how human cancer cells enter lymphatic vessels and as to what reactions if any in the draining lymph node inhibit metastasis. We are uncertain as to whether lymphatic metastasis is an indicator or a governor of rapid dissemination, and ...
