What are the ideal characteristics of a venous stent?

Veins and Lymphatics, 2021
Historically, the stents used in the venous system were not dedicated scaffolds. They were largely adapted arterial stents. An essential feature of a venous stent is compliance, in order to adapt its crosssectional area to the vein.

FXR1 regulates vascular smooth muscle cell cytoskeleton, VSMC contractility, and blood pressure by multiple mechanisms

Cell Reports, 2023
Summary: Appropriate cytoskeletal organization is essential for vascular smooth muscle cell (VSMC) conditions such as hypertension. This study identifies FXR1 as a key protein linking cytoskeletal dynamics with mRNA stability.

Cerebrospinal fluid outflow: a review of the historical and contemporary evidence for arachnoid villi, perineural routes, and dural lymphatics

Cellular and Molecular Life Sciences, 2021
Cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) is produced by the choroid plexuses within the ventricles of the brain and circulates through the subarachnoid space of the skull and spinal column to provide buoyancy to and maintain fluid homeostasis of the brain and spinal ...

Spectral characteristics of the internal jugular vein and central venous pressure pulses: a proof of concept study

Veins and Lymphatics, 2021
In this proof-of-concept study the impact of central venous pressure (CVP) on internal jugular veins cross-sectional area (CSA) and blood flow time-average velocity (TAV) was evaluated in eight subjects, with the aim of understanding the drivers of the ...

Targeting Lymphatics for Nanoparticle Drug Delivery

Frontiers in Pharmacology, 2022
The lymphatics transport material from peripheral tissues to lymph nodes, where immune responses are formed, before being transported into systemic circulation.

Challenging the Paradigm: Anti-Inflammatory Interleukins and Angiogenesis

Cells, 2022
Angiogenesis is a vital biological process, and neovascularization is essential for the development, wound repair, and perfusion of ischemic tissue. Neovascularization and inflammation are independent biological processes that are linked in response to ...

A functional role of meningeal lymphatics in sex difference of stress susceptibility in mice

Nature Communications, 2022
Major depressive disorder is one of the most common mental health conditions. Meningeal lymphatics are essential for drainage of molecules in the cerebrospinal fluid to the peripheral immune system.

Circadian clocks guide dendritic cells into skin lymphatics

Nature Immunology, 2021
Migration of leukocytes from the skin to lymph nodes (LNs) via afferent lymphatic vessels (LVs) is pivotal for adaptive immune responses1,2. Circadian rhythms have emerged as important regulators of leukocyte trafficking to LNs via the blood3,4. Here, we

Functional aspects of meningeal lymphatics in aging and Alzheimer’s disease

Nature, 2018
Ageing is a major risk factor for many neurological pathologies, but its mechanisms remain unclear. Unlike other tissues, the parenchyma of the central nervous system (CNS) lacks lymphatic vasculature and waste products are removed partly through a ...
