Hierarchical Deep Network with Uncertainty-aware Semi-supervised Learning for Vessel Segmentation [PDF]
arXiv, 2021 The analysis of organ vessels is essential for computer-aided diagnosis and surgical planning. But it is not a easy task since the fine-detailed connected regions of organ vessel bring a lot of ambiguity in vessel segmentation and sub-type recognition, especially for the low-contrast capillary regions.

Pathological steps of cancer-related lymphedema: histological changes in the collecting lymphatic vessels after lymphadenectomy. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2012 INTRODUCTION: To date, an electron microscopy study of the collecting lymphatic vessels has not been conducted to examine the early stages of lymphedema. However, such histological studies could be useful for elucidating the mechanism of lymphedema onset.

Unexpected contribution of lymphatic vessels to promotion of distant metastatic tumor spread
Science Advances, 2018 Lymphatic vessels promote organ-to-organ metastasis in addition to mediating tumor cell dissemination from the primary site. Tumor lymphangiogenesis is accompanied by a higher incidence of sentinel lymph node metastasis and shorter overall survival in ...

Anatomy of the vertebral column lymphatic network in mice [PDF]
arXiv, 2019 Cranial lymphatic vessels (LVs) are involved in transport of fluids, macromolecules and CNS immune responses. Little information about spinal LVs is available, because these delicate structures are embedded within vertebral tissues and difficult to visualize using traditional histology. Here we reveal an extended vertebral column LV network using three-

Designing for Degradation: Transient Devices Enabled by (Nano)Cellulose
Advanced Materials, EarlyView.Recent progress in transient devices enabled by (nano)cellulosic materials is reviewed. Transiency mechanisms, advantages of nanocelluloses, and a suite of applications are discussed. A circular thinking approach coupled with life cycle assessment is applied to critically revisit the potential, advantages, and challenges of nanocellulose‐enabled ...

American Journal of Physiology. Heart and Circulatory Physiology, 2018 We identified a regional dichotomy in murine lymphatic contractile function with regard to vessel location within the periphery or visceral cavity. All vessels isolated from peripheral regions [cervical, popliteal, inguinal, axillary, and internodal ...

Engineering CAR‐T Therapeutics for Enhanced Solid Tumor Targeting
Advanced Materials, EarlyView.CART cell therapy has proven effective for blood cancers but struggles with solid tumors due to diverse antigens and complex environments. Recent efforts focus on improving CAR design and validation platforms. Advances in protein engineering, machine learning, and organoid systems aim to enhance CAR‐T therapy against solid tumors.
