Permeability of lymphatic vessels
American Journal of Physiology-Legacy Content, 1962Substances 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, 2022To 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
Journal of Vascular Research, 1975The 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.

Biological functions of lymphatic vessels
Science, 2020Roles of organ-specific lymphatic vessels Lymphatic vessels are spread throughout the human body and have critical functions in mammalian physiology. Petrova et al. review emerging roles of the lymphatic vasculature in organ function and pathology and provide perspectives beyond the traditional view of ...

Lymphatic vessels of the mammalian heart
The Anatomical Record, 1978AbstractAn in situ heart lung preparation was developed to label lymphatics of the actively beating dog heart with subsequent fixation by vascular perfusion. Immediately after interstitial injections of trypan blue and colloidal carbon, a rich plexus of lymphatic vessels was visualized in the epicardium of the actively beating heart.

Clinics in Dermatology, 2011
The traditional nomenclature of vascular lesions has been enlarged and modified with the usage of newer diagnostic techniques. Digital technology has enhanced the precision of older analog tools such as Doppler flow studies. Angiograms have also more precisely delineated flow patterns to allow planned surgical intervention as an important therapeutic ...

Lymphatic Vessel Activation in Cancer
Annals of the New York Academy of Sciences, 2002Abstract: Metastasis of most cancers occurs primarily through the lymphatic system, and the extent of lymph node involvement is the most important prognostic indicator. While the importance of the lymphatic system as a pathway for metastasis has been well recognized, there is very little information available about the mechanisms by which tumor cells ...

Optimal Lymphatic Vessel Structure
The 26th Annual International Conference of the IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society, 2005Lymphatic 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.

Lymphatic Vessel Activation in Cancer
Annals of the New York Academy of Sciences, 2008Most cancerous lesions metastasize through the lymphatic system and the status of regional lymph nodes is the most important indicator of a patient's prognosis. The extent of lymph node involvement with cancer is also an important parameter used for determining treatment options.
