Optimization and regeneration kinetics of lymphatic-specific photodynamic therapy in the mouse dermis. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Lymphatic vessels transport fluid, antigens, and immune cells to the lymph nodes to orchestrate adaptive immunity and maintain peripheral tolerance. Lymphangiogenesis has been associated with inflammation, cancer metastasis, autoimmunity, tolerance and ...

Lymphangiogenesis in breast carcinoma is present but insufficient for metastatic spread [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Introduction: The lymphatic vasculature is an important route for the metastatic spread of human cancer. However, the extent to which this depends on lymphangiogenesis or on invasion of existing lymph vessels remains controversial. The goal of this study

Lymphatic Vasculature in Energy Homeostasis and Obesity

open access: yesFrontiers in Physiology, 2020
Obesity is a leading cause of cardiovascular diseases and cancer. Body mass is regulated by the balance between energy uptake and energy expenditure. The etiology of obesity is determined by multiple factors including genetics, nutrient absorption, and ...

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

open access: yesFrontiers 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

open access: yesFrontiers 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.

Cardiac Lymphatic Insufficiency Leads to Diastolic Dysfunction Via Myocardial Morphologic Change

open access: yesJACC: 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.

The discovery of lymphatic system as a turning point in medical knowledge: Aselli, Pecquet and the end of hepatocentrism [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
In this paper, I would like to analyse the impact of the discovery of lymphatic system on the development of the modern conception of human body. The discovery of lymphatics, as that of blood circulation, has in fact questioned important tenets of Galen ...

Blood and Lymphatic Vessel Formation [PDF]

open access: yesCold 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.

Three-dimensional imaging of Prox1-EGFP transgenic mouse gonads reveals divergent modes of lymphangiogenesis in the testis and ovary.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2012
The lymphatic vasculature forms a specialized part of the circulatory system, being essential for maintaining tissue fluid homeostasis and for transport of hormones, macromolecules, and immune cells.
