Lymphatic vessels in osteoarthritic human knees

open access: yes, 2012
Objectives: The distribution and function of lymphatic vessels in normal and diseased human knees are understood incompletely. This study aimed to investigate whether lymphatic density is associated with clinical, histological or radiographic parameters ...

Clearance of cerebrospinal fluid from the sacral spine through lymphatic vessels. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
The pathways of circulation and clearance of cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) in the spine have yet to be elucidated. We have recently shown with dynamic in vivo imaging that routes of outflow of CSF in mice occur along cranial nerves to extracranial lymphatic ...

Nerve fibers in human lymphatic vessels [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Studies on lymphatic vessels in various organs have been carried out both from a structural than a functional point of view. Data, although scarce, could be found in past works concerning neurotransmission in lymphatic vessels.

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.

Cancer‐associated mutations in endometriosis reframe a benign disease through molecular oncology

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
This review aims to comprehensively analyse cancer‐associated somatic mutations (CAMs) present in endometriotic lesions, emphasizing their biological roles, spatial distribution and implications for translational applications in medicine. By contextualizing a benign state within a genomic framework, this analysis seeks to establish its value as a ...

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

open access: yesPlastic 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.

Characterization of therapeutic antibodies targeting lymphatic and vascular resistance factor for the treatment of hypervascularized and highly metastatic cancers

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
LVRF (lymphatic and vascular resistance factor) is a VEGFA splice variant upregulated in response to anti‐angiogenic therapy that fosters tumor adaptation through enhanced vascularization, lymphangiogenesis, and metastatic dissemination. Targeting LVRF with fully human neutralizing antibodies disrupts these processes and limits resistant tumor growth ...

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

open access: yesEuropean 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 ...

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.
