Mechanosensing in Developing Lymphatic Vessels
2013The lymphatic vasculature is responsible for fluid homeostasis, transport of immune cells, inflammatory molecules, and dietary lipids. It is composed of a network of lymphatic capillaries that drain into collecting lymphatic vessels and ultimately bring fluid back to the blood circulation.

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 ...

Lymphatic Vessel Transplantation
2015Lymphatic vessel transplantation is a direct approach to the lymphatic vascular system performing a bypass procedure like in other fields of vascular surgery. In lymphedemas due to a localized compromised lymphatic outflow, e.g., after a tumor therapy major, lymphatic collectors in front and behind the interruption are connected using the patient’s own
