Confocal Imaging: Blood and Lymphatic Capillaries
The Scientific World Journal, 2006 Traditional imaging techniques are quite limited for the study of the relationship between blood vessels and lymphatic vessels. Therefore, a new imaging technique is required based on blood vessel and lymphatic endothelial-specific molecular markers.

Pathophysiology of aged lymphatic vessels
Aging, 2019 Lymphatic vessels maintain body homeostasis by recirculation of fluid and cells. Cell senescence induces lymphatic dysfunction. Impaired contractile function is caused by low muscle cell investiture and decrease of nitric oxide in aged lymphatic collectors, leading to poor drainage of lymph.

Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus causes sustained collecting lymphatic vessel dysfunction
Science Translational Medicine, 2018 Impairment in lymph flow caused by methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus toxins persists after skin and soft tissue infections clear. Lymphatics limp along after MRSA Lymphedema is associated with skin and soft tissue infections, and both can be ...

Lymphatic vessels in health and disease [PDF]
WIREs Systems Biology and Medicine, 2012 AbstractThe lymphatic vasculature plays vital roles in tissue fluid balance, immune defense, metabolism, and cancer metastasis. In adults, lymphatic vessel formation and remodeling occur primarily during inflammation, development of the corpus luteum, wound healing, and tumor growth.

Structure-preserving semi-convex-splitting numerical scheme for a Cahn-Hilliard cross-diffusion system in lymphangiogenesis [PDF]
arXiv, 2023 A fully discrete semi-convex-splitting finite-element scheme with stabilization for a Cahn-Hilliard cross-diffusion system is analyzed. The system consists of parabolic fourth-order equations for the volume fraction of the fiber phase and solute concentration, modeling pre-patterning of lymphatic vessel morphology.

RASA1 regulates the function of lymphatic vessel valves in mice
Journal of Clinical Investigation, 2017 Capillary malformation–arteriovenous malformation (CM-AVM) is a blood and lymphatic vessel (LV) disorder that is caused by inherited inactivating mutations of the RASA1 gene, which encodes p120 RasGAP (RASA1), a negative regulator of the Ras small GTP ...
