Three-dimensional imaging of vascular development in the mouse epididymis

open access: yeseLife, 2023
Long considered an accessory tubule of the male reproductive system, the epididymis is proving to be a key determinant of male fertility. In addition to its secretory role in ensuring functional maturation and survival of spermatozoa, the epididymis has ...

Dye diffusion during laparoscopic tubal patency tests may suggest a lymphatic contribution to dissemination in endometriosis: A prospective, observational study [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Aim Women with adenomyosis are at higher risk of endometriosis recurrence after surgery. This study was to assess if the lymphatic vessel network drained from the uterus to near organs where endometriosis foci lied.

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.

The lymphatic system in alcohol-associated liver disease [PDF]

open access: yesClinical and Molecular Hepatology, 2020
The lymphatic system plays vital roles in interstitial fluid balance and immune cell surveillance. The effect of alcohol on the lymphatic system is poorly understood.

Efficient homing of T cells via afferent lymphatics requires mechanical arrest and integrin-supported chemokine guidance

open access: yesNature Communications, 2020
Little is known regarding lymph node (LN)-homing of immune cells via afferent lymphatics. Here, we show, using a photo-convertible Dendra-2 reporter, that recently activated CD4 T cells enter downstream LNs via afferent lymphatics at high frequencies ...

Lymphatics in bone arise from pre-existing lymphatics

open access: yesDevelopment, 2020
Bones do not normally have lymphatics. However, individuals with generalized lymphatic anomaly (GLA) or Gorham–Stout disease (GSD) develop ectopic lymphatics in bone. Despite growing interest in the development of tissue-specific lymphatics, the cellular

Dural lymphatics regulate clearance of extracellular tau from the CNS

open access: yesMolecular Neurodegeneration, 2019
Alzheimer’s disease is characterized by two main neuropathological hallmarks: extracellular plaques of amyloid-β (Aβ) protein and intracellular aggregates of tau protein.

Co-localization of lymphoid aggregates and lymphatic networks in nose- (NALT) and lacrimal duct-associated lymphoid tissue (LDALT) of mice

open access: yesBMC Immunology, 2018
Background The lymphatic vascular pattern in the head of mice has rarely been studied, due to problems of sectioning and immunostaining of complex bony structures.

Heartbreak hotel: a convergence in cardiac regeneration [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
In February 2016, the Company of Biologists hosted an intimate gathering of leading international researchers at the forefront of experimental cardiovascular regeneration, with its emphasis on ‘Transdifferentiation and Tissue Plasticity in Cardiovascular

A new paradigm in intracellular immunology: Mitochondria emerging as leading immune organelles

open access: yesRedox Biology
Mitochondria, traditionally recognized as cellular 'powerhouses' due to their pivotal role in energy production, have emerged as multifunctional organelles at the intersection of bioenergetics, metabolic signaling, and immunity.
