Cdk5 controls lymphatic vessel development and function by phosphorylation of Foxc2. [PDF]

, 2015
The lymphatic system maintains tissue fluid balance, and dysfunction of lymphatic vessels and valves causes human lymphedema syndromes. Yet, our knowledge of the molecular mechanisms underlying lymphatic vessel development is still limited. Here, we show

Human and nonhuman primate meninges harbor lymphatic vessels that can be visualized noninvasively by MRI

eLife, 2017
Here, we report the existence of meningeal lymphatic vessels in human and nonhuman primates (common marmoset monkeys) and the feasibility of noninvasively imaging and mapping them in vivo with high-resolution, clinical MRI.

Vegfr3-tdTomato, a reporter mouse for microscopic visualization of lymphatic vessel by multiple modalities.

PLoS ONE, 2021
Lymphatic vessels are indispensable for tissue fluid homeostasis, transport of solutes and dietary lipids and immune cell trafficking. In contrast to blood vessels, which are easily visible by their erythrocyte cargo, lymphatic vessels are not readily ...

Blood and Lymphatic Vessel Formation [PDF]

Cold 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.

PLoS 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.

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.

Clearance of cerebrospinal fluid from the sacral spine through lymphatic vessels

Journal of Experimental Medicine, 2019
Using a tracer-based approach with near-infrared fluorescence and magnetic resonance imaging in mice, the authors establish the concept of a cranial-to-caudal circulation of cerebrospinal fluid within the spinal column, with clearance to lymphatic ...

Lymphatic vessels in solid organ transplantation and immunobiology

American Journal of Transplantation, 2020
With the recent advances in our understanding of the function and biology of the lymphatic vascular system, it is clear that the lymphatic system plays an integral role in physiology, and in pathological settings, may contribute to either enhance or ...

Lymphatic and blood vessels in parathyroid tumors: Immunohistochemical study with LYVE-1 and von Willebrand factor

Biomolecules & Biomedicine
Parathyroid tumors exhibit distinct histopathological features that differentiate benign from malignant lesions. This study aimed to study characteristic distribution of lymphatic and blood vessels in normal parathyroid gland and parathyroid tumors to ...

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

, 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 ...
