Advancing Human Skin Equivalents: The Crucial Role of Neurovascular Integration

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
This review discusses the importance of integrating vascular and peripheral nerve systems into human skin equivalents (HSEs) to better recapitulate native skin physiology. Recent advances in vascularized, innervated, and neurovascularized HSEs are highlighted, together with emerging bioengineering strategies, current challenges, and future ...

Mouse Brain Lymphatic Vessels

ACS Chemical Neuroscience
Abstract The lymphatic system plays a vital role in immune function and waste removal, yet its involvement in the brain has remained largely unexplored. This study provides compelling evidence of lymphatic vessels in the mouse brain, specifically in the cortex, thalamus, and hippocampus.

Lyve1 expression reveals novel lymphatic vessels and new mechanisms for lymphatic vessel development in zebrafish

, 2012
We have generated novel transgenic lines that brightly mark the lymphatic system of zebrafish using the lyve1 promoter. Facilitated by these new transgenic lines, we generated a map of zebrafish lymphatic development up to 15 days postfertilisation and ...

Are we nearly there yet? Coverage and compliance of mass drug administration for lymphatic filariasis elimination. [PDF]

, 2015
Lymphatic filariasis has been targeted for elimination by 2020, and a threshold of 65% coverage of mass drug administration (MDA) has been adopted by the Global Programme to Eliminate Lymphatic Filariasis (GPELF).

Intelligent Micro/Nanorobots for Targeted Interventional Therapy: From Bench to Clinic

Advanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.
Zirui Zhang et al. reviewed the application and challenges of mobile nanomachines in interventional therapy. By converting exogenous energy, including chemical, magnetic, optical, and ultrasonic sources, into mechanical forces, micro/nanorobots (MNRs) enable precise actuation at unprecedented scales. Evolving far beyond traditional drug delivery, these

Lymphatic Mapping for LVA with Noncontrast Lymphatic Ultrasound: How We Do It

Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery, Global Open
Summary:. Recently, lymphatic ultrasonography has received increasing attention. Although there are several reports on contrast-enhanced lymphatic ultrasound as a preoperative examination for lymphaticovenous anastomosis (LVA), we have been reporting the

Protocol for in vivo and in vitro study of lymphatic valve formation driven by shear stress signaling pathway

STAR Protocols, 2023
Summary: Here we detail a protocol for the isolation and processing of lymphatic enriched tissue of mouse models for the purpose of immunostaining and quantification of lymphatic valves, vessel length, and vessel diameter.

Pre‐Regenerative Endothelial Cells Empowered by Antler Blood Exosomes Orchestrate Peripheral Nerve Repair

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
The pre‐regenerative vascular niche (PVN) is essential for nerve repair, yet its endothelial blueprint remains unclear. We identified angiogenic ECs (AECs) as the dominant pre‐regenerative subset and found that antler blood–derived exosomes (AB‐EXO) promote repair via IMP3.

Solute Transport across the Lymphatic Vasculature in a Soft Skin Tissue

Biology, 2023
Convective transport of drug solutes in biological tissues is regulated by the interstitial fluid pressure, which plays a crucial role in drug absorption into the lymphatic system through the subcutaneous (SC) injection.
