Pathogenic Exploitation of Lymphatic Vessels

Cells, 2022
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

Characterisation of ovine lymphatic vessels in fresh specimens. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2019
Background and aimThe development and use of experimental models using lymphatic cannulation techniques have been hampered by the lack of high-quality colour imaging of lymphatic vessels in situ.

Efficient Assessment of Developmental, Surgical and Pathological Lymphangiogenesis Using a Lymphatic Reporter Mouse and Its Embryonic Stem Cells. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2016
Several lymphatic reporter mouse lines have recently been developed to significantly improve imaging of lymphatic vessels. Nonetheless, the usage of direct visualization of lymphatic vessels has not been fully explored and documented.

An Effective Approach to Collecting Lymph Vessels Using a Small Diameter Wire for Lymphaticovenous Anastomosis in Upper Limb Lymphedema

Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery, Global Open, 2023
Summary:. Lymphaticovenous anastomosis (LVA), which involves connecting lymphatic vessels to veins under a microscope, is widely performed around the world as a surgical treatment for lymphedema due to its relatively low patient burden and consistent ...

Fluorescent Tracers for In Vivo Imaging of Lymphatic Targets

Frontiers in Pharmacology, 2022
The lymphatic system continues to gain importance in a range of conditions, and therefore, imaging of lymphatic vessels is becoming more widespread for research, diagnosis, and treatment. Fluorescent lymphatic imaging offers advantages over other methods

Ultra High-frequency Ultrasonographic Imaging with 70 MHz Scanner for Visualization of the Lymphatic Vessels

Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery, Global Open, 2019
Background:. Identification and localization of functional lymphatic vessels are important for lymphaticovenular anastomosis. Conventional high-frequency ultrasound (CHFUS) has been reported to be useful for them, but it has some disadvantages.

LED-based photoacoustic imaging for preoperative visualization of lymphatic vessels in patients with secondary limb lymphedema

Photoacoustics, 2023
Lymphedema is the accumulation of protein-rich fluid in the interstitium (i.e., dermal backflow (DBF)). Preoperative imaging of the lymphatic vessels is a prerequisite for lymphovenous bypass surgical planning.

Blood and Lymphatic Vessel Formation [PDF]

Cold Spring Harbor Perspectives in Biology, 2015
Blood and lymphatic vessels deliver oxygen and nutrients, remove waste and CO2, and regulate interstitial pressure in tissues and organs. These vessels begin life early in embryogenesis using transcription factors and signaling pathways that regulate differentiation, morphogenesis, and proliferation.

Tumor-induced myeloid cell plasticity toward lymphatic endothelium [PDF]

, 2009
Tumor-associated lymphangiogenesis contributes to tumor progression by regulating interstitial fluid pressure, transporting immune cells to the tumor site and providing a route for metastatic dissemination.

A Role for All-Trans-Retinoic Acid in the Early Steps of Lymphatic Vasculature Development [PDF]

, 2010
The molecular mechanisms that regulate the earliest steps of lymphatic vascular system development are unknown. To identify regulators of lymphatic competence and commitment, we used an in vitro vascular assay with mouse embryonic stem cell-derived ...
