High relative density of lymphatic vessels predicts poor survival in tongue squamous cell carcinoma [PDF]
, 2016 Tongue cancer has a poor prognosis due to its early metastasis via lymphatic vessels. The present study aimed at evaluating lymphatic vessel density, relative density of lymphatic vessel, and diameter of lymphatic vessels and its predictive role in ...

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.

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.

Mechanical forces in lymphatic vessel development: Focus on transcriptional regulation
Frontiers in Physiology, 2022 The lymphatic system is crucial for the maintenance of interstitial fluid and protein homeostasis. It has important roles in collecting excess plasma and interstitial fluid leaked from blood vessels, lipid absorption and transportation in the digestive ...

Lymphangiography to treat postoperative lymphatic leakage: a technical review. [PDF]
, 2014 In addition to imaging the lymphatics and detecting various types of lymphatic leakage, lymphangiography is a therapeutic option for patients with chylothorax, chylous ascites, and lymphatic fistula.

Renal lymphatic vessel dynamics
American Journal of Physiology-Renal Physiology, 2020 Similar to other organs, renal lymphatics remove excess fluid, solutes, and macromolecules from the renal interstitium. Given the kidney’s unique role in maintaining body fluid homeostasis, renal lymphatics may be critical in this process. However, little is known regarding the pathways involved in renal lymphatic vessel function, and there are no ...
