Lymphatic vessels in solid organ transplantation and immunobiology
With the recent advances in our understanding of the function and biology of the lymphatic vascular system, it is clear that the lymphatic system plays an integral role in physiology, and in pathological settings, may contribute to either enhance or ...

Lymphangiography to treat postoperative lymphatic leakage: a technical review. [PDF]
In addition to imaging the lymphatics and detecting various types of lymphatic leakage, lymphangiography is a therapeutic option for patients with chylothorax, chylous ascites, and lymphatic fistula.

Organogenesis and distribution of the ocular lymphatic vessels in the anterior eye.
Glaucoma surgeries, such as trabeculectomy, are performed to lower intraocular pressure to reduce risk of vision loss. These surgeries create a new passage in the eye that reroutes the aqueous humor outflow to the subconjunctival space, where the fluid ...

Pathogenic Exploitation of Lymphatic Vessels
Lymphatic vessels provide a critical line of communication between peripheral tissues and their draining lymph nodes, which is necessary for robust immune responses against infectious agents. At the same time, lymphatics help shape the nature and kinetics of immune responses to ensure resolution, limit tissue damage, and prevent autoimmune responses. A

Lymphatic vessels are indispensable for tissue fluid homeostasis, transport of solutes and dietary lipids and immune cell trafficking. In contrast to blood vessels, which are easily visible by their erythrocyte cargo, lymphatic vessels are not readily ...

The Interplay Between Lymphatic Vessels and Chemokines
Chemokines are a family of small protein cytokines that act as chemoattractants to migrating cells, in particular those of the immune system. They are categorized functionally as either homeostatic, constitutively produced by tissues for basal levels of ...

The role of lymphatics in renal inflammation [PDF]
Progressive renal diseases are characterized by tubulointerstitial inflammatory cell recruitment, tubular atrophy and fibrosis. Various aspects of the recruitment of leukocytes have been extensively studied, but the exit routes (i.e.
