Pkd1 Regulates Lymphatic Vascular Morphogenesis during Development [PDF]

open access: yesCell Reports, 2014
Lymphatic vessels arise during development through sprouting of precursor cells from veins, which is regulated by known signaling and transcriptional mechanisms. The ongoing elaboration of vessels to form a network is less well understood.

Cdk5 controls lymphatic vessel development and function by phosphorylation of Foxc2 [PDF]

open access: yesNature Communications, 2015
The lymphatic system maintains tissue fluid balance, and dysfunction of lymphatic vessels and valves causes human lymphedema syndromes. Yet, our knowledge of the molecular mechanisms underlying lymphatic vessel development is still limited. Here, we show

Blood and lymphatic vessel formation. [PDF]

open access: yesCold Spring Harbor Perspectives in Biology, 2015
Blood and lymphatic vessels deliver oxygen and nutrients, remove waste and CO2, and regulate interstitial pressure in tissues and organs. These vessels begin life early in embryogenesis using transcription factors and signaling pathways that regulate ...

Lymphatic vessel network injury reduces local tumor control despite preservation of the tumor-draining lymph node [PDF]

open access: yesScientific Reports
The lymphatic system plays complex, often contradictory, roles in many cancers, including melanoma; these roles include contributions to tumor cell metastasis and immunosuppression in the tumor microenvironment as well as generation of antitumor immunity.

Lymphatic Vessel Regression and Its Therapeutic Applications: Learning From Principles of Blood Vessel Regression

open access: yesFrontiers in Physiology, 2022
Aberrant lymphatic system function has been increasingly implicated in pathologies such as lymphedema, organ transplant rejection, cardiovascular disease, obesity, and neurodegenerative diseases including Alzheimer’s disease and Parkinson’s disease ...

Comparison of normal hindlimb lymphatic systems in rats with detours present after lymphatic flow blockage.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2021
In the present study, we aimed to identify the normal hindlimb lymphatic systems in rats and compare them with the detours after lymphatic flow blockage.

Investigating lymphangiogenesis in vitro and in vivo using engineered human lymphatic vessel networks

open access: yesProceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America, 2021
Significance Lymphatic vessel networks are important for various biological processes; thus, incorporating them into engineered constructs can have both research and clinical implications.

Loss of Primary Cilia Protein IFT20 Dysregulates Lymphatic Vessel Patterning in Development and Inflammation

open access: yesFrontiers in Cell and Developmental Biology, 2021
Microenvironmental signals produced during development or inflammation stimulate lymphatic endothelial cells to undergo lymphangiogenesis, in which they sprout, proliferate, and migrate to expand the vascular network.

Lymphatic Collecting Vessel: New Perspectives on Mechanisms of Contractile Regulation and Potential Lymphatic Contractile Pathways to Target in Obesity and Metabolic Diseases

open access: yesFrontiers in Pharmacology, 2022
Obesity and metabolic syndrome pose a significant risk for developing cardiovascular disease and remain a critical healthcare challenge. Given the lymphatic system’s role as a nexus for lipid absorption, immune cell trafficking, interstitial fluid and ...
