Pump efficacy in a fluid-structure interaction model of a chain of contracting lymphangions [PDF]

arXiv, 2020
The transport of lymph through the lymphatic vasculature is the mechanism for returning excess interstitial fluid to the circulatory system, and it is essential for fluid homeostasis. Collecting lymphatic vessels comprise a significant portion of the lymphatic vasculature and are divided by valves into contractile segments known as lymphangions ...

Investigating the Effects of Shear Stress on the Protein Expression of Lymphatic Endothelial Cells (LECs) [PDF]

, 2018
The lymphatic system plays three main important roles: Its cells are primarily responsible for the immune response of the human body, it represents a separate circulatory system, and it is involved in the transport of select nutrients from the digestive ...

Hematopoietic Stem Cells Contribute to Lymphatic Endothelium [PDF]

, 2008
Although the lymphatic system arises as an extension of venous vessels in the embryo, little is known about the role of circulating progenitors in the maintenance or development of lymphatic endothelium.

The cytoskeletal control of B cell receptor and integrin signaling in normal B cells and chronic lymphocytic leukemia

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
In lymphoid organs, antigen recognition and B cell receptor signaling rely on integrins and the cytoskeleton. Integrins act as mechanoreceptors, couple B cell receptor activation to cytoskeletal remodeling, and support immune synapse formation as well as antigen extraction.

Exercise and Lymphatic System

Türk Spor ve Egzersiz Dergisi, 2021
The human body has two main circulatory systems, the blood and lymphatic systems. Although both systems share many functional, structural and anatomical similarities, the two vascular systems have many differences in science and medicine.

The interstitial compartment as a therapeutic target in heart failure

Frontiers in Cardiovascular Medicine, 2022
Congestion is the single most important contributor to heart failure (HF) decompensation. Most of the excess volume in patients with HF resides in the interstitial compartment.

B cell mechanobiology in health and disease: emerging techniques and insights into therapeutic responses

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
B cells sense external mechanical forces and convert them into biochemical signals through mechanotransduction. Understanding how malignant B cells respond to physical stimuli represents a groundbreaking area of research. This review examines the key mechano‐related molecules and pathways in B lymphocytes, highlights the most relevant techniques to ...

Lymphatic endothelium in health and disease [PDF]

, 2018
The lymphatic vascular system has an important role in the maintenance of tissue fluid pressure homeostasis, in the mediation of the afferent immune response via recruitment of antigen-presenting cells toward draining lymph nodes, and in the intestinal ...
