The spinal lymphatic system: an emerging pathway bridging fluid homeostasis, immunity, and disease [PDF]

open access: yesBone Research
The lymphatic system, traditionally regarded as a unidirectional conduit for interstitial fluid and immune cell transport, has recently been redefined through the discovery of lymphatic networks along the spinal axis.

Lymphatic System Flows [PDF]

open access: yesAnnual Review of Fluid Mechanics, 2018
The supply of oxygen and nutrients to tissues is performed by the blood system and involves a net leakage of fluid outward at the capillary level. One of the principal functions of the lymphatic system is to gather this fluid and return it to the blood system to maintain overall fluid balance. Fluid in the interstitial spaces is often at subatmospheric
