Differential regulation of lymphatic junctional morphology and the potential effects on cardiovascular diseases

Frontiers in Physiology, 2023
The lymphatic vasculature provides an essential route to drain fluid, macromolecules, and immune cells from the interstitium as lymph, returning it to the bloodstream where the thoracic duct meets the subclavian vein.

Lymphatic vasculature in the central nervous system

Frontiers in Cell and Developmental Biology, 2023
The central nervous system (CNS) is considered as an immune privilege organ, based on experiments in the mid 20th century showing that the brain fails to mount an efficient immune response against an allogeneic graft.

Protocol of Noncontrast High-frequency Ultrasound and Contrast-enhanced Ultrasound-guided Lymphatic Mapping for Lymphaticovenous Anastomosis Surgery

Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery, Global Open
Summary:. Lymphaticovenous anastomosis (LVA) surgery, one of the main methods for lymphedema, creates connections between lymphatic vessels and adjacent veins, facilitating lymphatic drainage.

Cardiac Lymphatic Insufficiency Leads to Diastolic Dysfunction Via Myocardial Morphologic Change

JACC: Basic to Translational Science, 2023
Summary: Although cardiac lymphatic vessels have received increasing attention in recent years, there is still a knowledge gap between cardiac lymphatics and heart homeostasis in a normal heart.

Solid Pseudopapillary Neoplasm of the Pancreas in Children and Adolescents: Expert Recommendations

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Solid pseudopapillary neoplasm of the pancreas (SPN) is a rare low‐grade malignant exocrine pancreatic tumor, mostly discovered during the second decade of life in females, with a very good prognosis, provided microscopically complete surgical excision is achieved.

Immunocytochemical staining for lymphatic and blood vessels with frozen sections: using LYVE-1 for lymphatic vessel and von Willebrand factor for blood vessel marker

European Journal of Histochemistry
Almost all human tissues are supplied with lymphatic vessels, yet histological structure and function of lymphatic vessels is still elusive. Most immunocytochemical studies have been performed with the routinely formalin-fixed and paraffin-embedded ...

Pre-collecting lymphatic vessels form detours following obstruction of lymphatic flow and function as collecting lymphatic vessels.

PLoS ONE, 2020
BackgroundPreviously, we showed that lymphatic vessels (LVs) formed detours after lymphatic obstruction, contributing to preventing lymphedema.

CEACAM1 participation in breast cancer progression

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
In invasive breast cancer (BC), CEACAM1 shifts from an apical to a uniform membranous/cytoplasmic pattern, or is lost, as tumors dedifferentiate, inversely tracking the Ki‐67 proliferative index. In MCF‐7 cells, only CEACAM1‐4L suppresses proliferation, repressing cell cycle and growth factor genes.
