Lymphatic vascular response to acute inflammation. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2013 During acute inflammation, functioning lymphatics are believed to reduce edema and to provide a transiting route for immune cells, but the extent at which the dermal lymphatic remodeling impacts lymphatic transport or the factors regulating these changes

Pathogenic Exploitation of Lymphatic Vessels
Cells, 2022 Lymphatic vessels provide a critical line of communication between peripheral tissues and their draining lymph nodes, which is necessary for robust immune responses against infectious agents. At the same time, lymphatics help shape the nature and kinetics of immune responses to ensure resolution, limit tissue damage, and prevent autoimmune responses. A

Multiple aspects of lymphatic dysfunction in an ApoE−/− mouse model of hypercholesterolemia
Frontiers in Physiology, 2023 Introduction: Rodent models of cardiovascular disease have uncovered various types of lymphatic vessel dysfunction that occur in association with atherosclerosis, type II diabetes and obesity.

Blood and Lymphatic Vessel Formation [PDF]
Cold 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 differentiation, morphogenesis, and proliferation.

Size adjustment suture technique for lymphaticovenular anastomosis
Journal of Plastic Surgery and Hand Surgery, 2023 In this report, we describe a super microsurgical technique that enables rapid and accurate anastomosis while adjusting for caliber differences when anastomosing a small-caliber lymphatic vessel and a vein with a larger caliber, which is frequently ...

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

Morphological, Mechanical and Hydrodynamic Aspects of Diaphragmatic Lymphatics
Biology, 2022 The diaphragmatic lymphatic vascular network has unique anatomical characteristics. Studying the morphology and distribution of the lymphatic network in the mouse diaphragm by fluorescence-immunohistochemistry using LYVE-1 (a lymphatic endothelial marker)

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.
