Lymphatic Collecting Vessels in Health and Disease: A Review of Histopathological Modifications in Lymphedema

Lymphatic Research and Biology, 2022
Secondary lymphedema of the extremities affects millions of people in the world as a common side effect of oncological treatments with heavy impact on every day life of patients and on the health care system. One of the surgical techniques for lymphedema

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 ...

Lymphatic Vessels at the Heart of the Matter [PDF]

Cell Metabolism, 2015
Emergent research in the past decades has brought to light the importance of lymphatic vessels in tissue homeostasis, immunity, metabolism, and inflammation. In Nature, Klotz et al. (2015) demonstrate that cardiac lymphatics have a unique ontology compared to visceral lymphatics and that promoting their growth can improve cardiac function following ...

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.

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

Meningeal lymphatic vessels regulate brain tumor drainage and immunity

Cell Research, 2020
Recent studies have shown that meningeal lymphatic vessels (MLVs), which are located both dorsally and basally beneath the skull, provide a route for draining macromolecules and trafficking immune cells from the central nervous system (CNS) into cervical

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.

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.

Exosome-derived miR-142-5p remodels lymphatic vessels and induces IDO to promote immune privilege in the tumour microenvironment

Cell Death and Differentiation, 2020
Clinical response to immunotherapy is closely associated with the immunosuppressive tumour microenvironment (TME), and influenced by the dynamic interaction between tumour cells and lymphatic endothelial cells (LECs).
