Lymphatic Vessels and Their Surroundings: How Local Physical Factors Affect Lymph Flow
Biology, 2020 Simple Summary Lymphatic vessels are responsible for the drainage of liquids, solutes, and cells from interstitial spaces and serosal cavities. Their task is fundamental in order to avoid fluid accumulation leading to tissue swelling and edema.

Lymphatic Vessels in Tumor Dissemination versus Immunotherapy
Cancer Research, 2020 During the growth of various cancers, primary tumors can escape antitumor immune responses of their host and eventually disseminate into distant organs. Peritumoral lymphatic vessels connect the primary tumor to lymph nodes, facilitating tumor entry into
