Smooth muscle cell recruitment to lymphatic vessels requires PDGFB and impacts vessel size but not identity

open access: yesDevelopment, 2017
Tissue fluid drains through blind-ended lymphatic capillaries, via smooth muscle cell (SMC)-covered collecting vessels into venous circulation. Both defective SMC recruitment to collecting vessels and ectopic recruitment to lymphatic capillaries are ...

Microwave lymphedema assessment using deep learning with contour assisted backprojection [PDF]

open access: yes
We present a method for early detection of lymphatic fluid accumulation in lymphedema patients based on microwave imaging of the limb volume across an air gap. The proposed algorithm uses contour information of the imaged limb surface to approximate the wave propagation velocity locally to solve the eikonal equation for implementing the adjoint imaging

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

open access: yesPlastic 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

Tumor Microenvironment Triggered In Situ Coagulation of Supramolecularly Engineered Platelets for Precise Tumor Embolization

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Occlusion of tumor blood vessels represents a promising yet challenging approach in cancer treatment. Herein, supramolecularly engineered platelets conjugated with morphology‐transformable nanoparticles is developed for precise tumor embolization. The engineered platelets actively accumulate at tumor sites following induced blood vessel injury.

Label-Free In Vivo Imaging of Corneal Lymphatic Vessels Using Microscopic Optical Coherence Tomography.

open access: yesInvestigative Ophthalmology and Visual Science, 2017
Purpose Corneal neovascularization, in particular lymphangiogenesis, is a limiting factor in corneal transplant survival. Novel treatment approaches focus on (selective) inhibition and regression of lymphatic vessels. Imaging clinically invisible corneal

IR783‐Stabilized Nanodrugs Enhance Anticancer Immune Response by Synergizing Oxidation Therapy and Epigenetic Modulation

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
IR783‐stabilized nanodrugs composed of NIR dye IR783, ROS inducer β‐lapachone, and epigenetic modulator CUDC101 are designed for breast cancer immunotherapy. The nanodrugs can not only promote cancer cell apoptosis through HDAC inhibition‐enhanced oxidation therapy but also reshape the immunosuppressive microenvironment, which provides a novel strategy

On tumor development: fractional transport approach [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2004
A growth of malignant neoplasm is considered as a fractional transport approach. We suggested that the main process of the tumor development through a lymphatic net is fractional transport of cells. In the framework of this fractional kinetics we were able to show that the mean size of main growth is due to subdiffusion, while the appearance of ...

IRF8 Drives Conventional Type 1 Dendritic Cell Differentiation and CD8+ T Cell Activation to Aggravate Abdominal Aortic Aneurysm Development

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
This study highlights the critical role of IRF8 in the development of AAA. IRF8 activation promotes the differentiation of cDC1s, which in turn recruit and activate CD8+ T cells, contributing to aortic wall degradation. The study identifies the IRF8‐cDC1‐CD8+ T cell axis as a key pathway in AAA progression, offering new potential therapeutic targets to
