Application of preoperative computed tomographic lymphography for precise sentinel lymph node biopsy in breast cancer patients

open access: yesBMC Surgery, 2021
Background In light of the extensive application of sentinel lymph node biopsy (SLNB) in clinically node-negative breast cancer patients and the recently investigated failure of SLNB after lumpectomy, it has become important to explore methods for ...

Use of Early Donated COVID-19 Convalescent Plasma Is Optimal to Preserve the Integrity of Lymphatic Endothelial Cells

open access: yesPharmaceuticals, 2022
Convalescent plasma therapy (CPT) has gained significant attention since the onset of the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic. However, clinical trials designed to study the efficacy of CPT based on antibody concentrations were inconclusive ...

Dysregulation of Lymphatic Endothelial VEGFR3 Signaling in Disease

open access: yesCells, 2023
Vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) receptor 3 (VEGFR3), a receptor tyrosine kinase encoded by the FLT4 gene, plays a significant role in the morphogenesis and maintenance of lymphatic vessels.

Magnetic resonance imaging of cerebrospinal fluid outflow after low-rate lateral ventricle infusion in mice

open access: yesJCI Insight, 2022
The anatomical routes for the clearance of cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) remain incompletely understood. However, recent evidence has given strong support for routes leading to lymphatic vessels. A current debate centers upon the routes through which CSF can

The Cardiac Lymphatics

open access: yesThe Annals of Thoracic Surgery, 1973
Abstract The cardiac lymphatic system is well developed. Investigations related to the lymphatics of the heart are recorded as early as the seventeenth century, and with improved techniques, many studies have produced new knowledge of the system during this century. Controversy remains, however, regarding the presence of lymphatics in certain areas of

Meningeal lymphatic drainage promotes T cell responses against Toxoplasma gondii but is dispensable for parasite control in the brain

open access: yeseLife, 2022
The discovery of meningeal lymphatic vessels that drain the CNS has prompted new insights into how immune responses develop in the brain. In this study, we examined how T cell responses against CNS-derived antigen develop in the context of infection.
