Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery, Global Open, 2023 Summary:. Clinical studies have reported that lymphaticovenular anastomosis (LVA) is more effective for early-stage lymphedema. However, the diameter of lymphatic vessels in early-stage lymphedema is thin (only about 0.3 mm). In this article, we report a

Chronic high-fat diet impairs collecting lymphatic vessel function in mice.
PLoS ONE, 2014 Lymphatic vessels play an essential role in intestinal lipid uptake, and impairment of lymphatic vessel function leads to enhanced adipose tissue accumulation in patients with lymphedema and in genetic mouse models of lymphatic dysfunction.

Three-Dimensional In Vitro Lymphangiogenesis Model in Tumor Microenvironment
Frontiers in Bioengineering and Biotechnology, 2021 Lymphangiogenesis is a stage of new lymphatic vessel formation in development and pathology, such as inflammation and tumor metastasis. Physiologically relevant models of lymphatic vessels have been in demand because studies on lymphatic vessels are ...
