Lymphatic vessel density is associated with CD8+ T cell infiltration and immunosuppressive factors in human melanoma

open access: yesOncoImmunology, 2018
Increased density of tumor-associated lymphatic vessels correlates with poor patient survival in melanoma and other cancers, yet lymphatic drainage is essential for initiating an immune response.

Impact of Lymphangiogenesis on Cardiac Remodeling After Ischemia and Reperfusion Injury

open access: yesJournal of the American Heart Association: Cardiovascular and Cerebrovascular Disease, 2018
Background Lymphatic vessels interconnect with blood vessels to form an elaborate system that aids in the control of tissue pressure and edema formation. Although the lymphatic system has been known to exist in a heart, little is known about the role the

Lymphatic endothelium stimulates melanoma metastasis and invasion via MMP14-dependent Notch3 and b1-integrin activation [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Lymphatic invasion and lymph node metastasis correlate with poor clinical outcome in melanoma. However, the mechanisms of lymphatic dissemination in distant metastasis remain incompletely understood.

VEGF-C promotes the development of lymphatics in bone and bone loss

open access: yeseLife, 2018
Patients with Gorham-Stout disease (GSD) have lymphatic vessels in their bones and their bones gradually disappear. Here, we report that mice that overexpress VEGF-C in bone exhibit a phenotype that resembles GSD.

Beneficial effects of sunitinib on tumor microenvironment and immunotherapy targeting death receptor5

open access: yesOncoImmunology, 2019
Tumor-associated blood vessels and lymphatics are abnormal and dysfunctional. These are hallmarks of the tumor microenvironment, which has an immunosuppressive nature, such as through hypoxia. Treatment with anti-death receptor5 (DR5) monoclonal antibody

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

open access: yeseLife, 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.

Aquaporin-4 Functionality and Virchow-Robin Space Water Dynamics: Physiological Model for Neurovascular Coupling and Glymphatic Flow. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
The unique properties of brain capillary endothelium, critical in maintaining the blood-brain barrier (BBB) and restricting water permeability across the BBB, have important consequences on fluid hydrodynamics inside the BBB hereto inadequately ...

Cross-talk between cardiac lymphatics and immune cells regulates inflammatory response and cardiac recovery after myocardial infarction

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology
Myocardial infarction (MI) is a life-threatening disease with high morbidity and mortality, closely associated with immune-inflammatory responses. As essential pathways for immune cell clearance and interstitial fluid drainage, lymphatic vessels are ...

Spatio-temporal Models of Lymphangiogenesis in Wound Healing

open access: yes, 2016
Several studies suggest that one possible cause of impaired wound healing is failed or insufficient lymphangiogenesis, that is the formation of new lymphatic capillaries.
