Mechanical forces in lymphatic vessel development: Focus on transcriptional regulation
Frontiers in Physiology, 2022 The lymphatic system is crucial for the maintenance of interstitial fluid and protein homeostasis. It has important roles in collecting excess plasma and interstitial fluid leaked from blood vessels, lipid absorption and transportation in the digestive ...

Three-Dimensional Imaging of Lymphatic System in Lymphedema Legs Using Interstitial Computed Tomography-lymphography [PDF]
, 2017 As a new trial, we used interstitial computed tomography-lymphography (CT-LG) in 10 patients with lower extremity lymphedema (n=20 limbs) at stage 0, 1, 2, or 3 under the International Society of Lymphology (ISL) classification.

Chronic high-fat diet impairs collecting lymphatic vessel function in mice.
PLoS ONE, 2014 Lymphatic vessels play an essential role in intestinal lipid uptake, and impairment of lymphatic vessel function leads to enhanced adipose tissue accumulation in patients with lymphedema and in genetic mouse models of lymphatic dysfunction.

Hyperactive KRAS/MAPK signaling disrupts normal lymphatic vessel architecture and function
Frontiers in Cell and Developmental Biology, 2023 Complex lymphatic anomalies (CLAs) are sporadically occurring diseases caused by the maldevelopment of lymphatic vessels. We and others recently reported that somatic activating mutations in KRAS can cause CLAs.

Differential Prox-1 and CD 31 expression in mucousae, cutaneous and soft tissue vascular lesions and tumors [PDF]
, 2005 The study of lymphatic vessels and lymphatic tumors has been hampered with difficulty due to the overlapping morphological features between blood and lymphatic endothelial cells, as well as to the lack of specific lymphatic endothelial markers.
