Lymphatic vessels in cancer

Physiological Reviews, 2022
The lymphatic system, composed of initial and collecting lymphatic vessels as well as lymph nodes that are present in almost every tissue of the human body, acts as an essential transport system for fluids, biomolecules, and cells between peripheral tissues and the central circulation. Consequently, it is required for normal body physiology but is also

Permeability of lymphatic vessels

American Journal of Physiology-Legacy Content, 1962
Substances of various molecular sizes were infused through leg or mesenteric lymphatics of anesthetized dogs and their concentrations were followed in thoracic duct lymph and plasma for the subsequent 2 1/2 hr. An isolated in vivo popliteal lymph node preparation was also perfused with some of the same substances. Small molecules were found to diffuse

Leukocyte Trafficking in Lymphatic Vessels

Cold Spring Harbor Perspectives in Medicine, 2022
To ensure proper immune function, most leukocytes constantly move within tissues or between them using the blood and lymphatic vessels as transport routes. While afferent lymphatic vessels transfer leukocytes from peripheral tissues to draining lymph nodes (dLNs), efferent lymphatics return lymphocytes from LNs back into the blood vascular circulation.

Biomechanics of a Lymphatic Vessel

Blood Vessels, 2008
The principles of mechanics and the current notions of lymphatic physiology are integrated into a simple mathematical model of a lymphatic vessel which establishes a theoretical base for lymph propulsion in the lymphatic system. The model specifically considers the active and passive contractilities of the lymphatics.

Microsurgical Lymphatic Vessel Transplantation

Journal of Reconstructive Microsurgery, 2015
Lymphedema often arises after a regional interruption during cancer treatment, for example after lymph node resection the axilla or the groin. Lymphatic vessels as vascular grafts may overcome these lymphatic gaps.Experiments in rats and dogs were performed for developing this method.

Optimal Lymphatic Vessel Structure

The 26th Annual International Conference of the IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society, 2005
Lymphatic vessels transport excess interstitial fluid from the low-pressure tissues to the higher pressure veins. The basic structural unit of lymphatic vessels is the lymphangion, a segment of the vessel separated by two unidirectional valves. Lymphangions cyclically contract like ventricles and can actively pump lymph.
