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 ...

Axillary Web Syndrome Evidence for Lymphatic Origin with Thrombosis

, 2020
Background: The axillary web syndrome (AWS) occurs in the axilla and on the frontal side of the upper arm and sometimes along the forearm to the thumb. The cord is painful, particularly on movement, and can therefore be very distressing for the patient ...

The chemokine receptors ACKR2 and CCR2 reciprocally regulate lymphatic vessel density [PDF]

, 2014
Macrophages regulate lymphatic vasculature development; however, the molecular mechanisms regulating their recruitment to developing, and adult, lymphatic vascular sites are not known.

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)

Decline of lymphatic vessel density and function in murine skin during aging. [PDF]

, 2015
Lymphatic vessels play important roles in the pathogenesis of many conditions that have an increased prevalence in the elderly population. However, the effects of the aging process on the lymphatic system are still relatively unknown. We have applied non-

High lymphatic vessel density and presence of lymphovascular invasion both predict poor prognosis in breast cancer

BMC Cancer, 2017
Background Lymphatic vessel density and lymphovascular invasion are commonly assessed to identify the clinicopathological outcomes in breast cancer. However, the prognostic values of them on patients’ survival are still uncertain.

Network development in biological gels: role in lymphatic vessel development [PDF]

, 2008
In this paper, we present a model that explains the prepatterning of lymphatic vessel morphology in collagen gels. This model is derived using the theory of two phase rubber material due to Flory and coworkers and it consists of two coupled fourth order ...

Clinical implications of increased lymph vessel density in the lymphatic metastasis of early-stage invasive cervical carcinoma: a clinical immunohistochemical method study

BMC Cancer, 2009
Background Cervical cancer is the most common malignant gynecological cancer, and lymphatic metastasis can occur in the early stage of tumor growth. Lymphatic vessel endothelial hyaluronan receptor-1 (LYVE-1), a marker for lymphatic endothelium, provides
