Complex Non-sinus-associated Pachymeningeal Lymphatic Structures: Interrelationship With Blood Microvasculature

open access: yesFrontiers in Physiology, 2019
The contribution of cranial dura mater vascular networks, as means for maintaining brain fluid movement and balance, and as the source of significant initiators and/or contributors to neurological disorders, has been overlooked. These networks consist of

Stromal Fibroblasts in Tertiary Lymphoid Structures: A Novel Target in Chronic Inflammation [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Tertiary lymphoid structures (TLS) are organized aggregates of lymphocytes, myeloid, and stromal cells that provide ectopic hubs for acquired immune responses.

Therapeutic approaches to CNS diseases via the meningeal lymphatic and glymphatic system: prospects and challenges

open access: yesFrontiers in Cell and Developmental Biology
The brain has traditionally been considered an “immune-privileged” organ lacking a lymphatic system. However, recent studies have challenged this view by identifying the presence of the glymphatic system and meningeal lymphatic vessels (MLVs).

Stimulation and Inhibition of Lymphangiogenesis Via Adeno-Associated Viral Gene Delivery [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
The lymphatic vessels can be selectively stimulated to grow in adult mice, rats and pigs by application of viral vectors expressing the lymphangiogenic factors VEGF-C or VEGF-D.

Spatiotemporal dynamic changes of meningeal microenvironment influence meningeal lymphatic function following subarachnoid hemorrhage: from inflammatory response to tissue remodeling

open access: yesJournal of Neuroinflammation
Background Meningeal lymphatic vessels (mLVs) play a critical role in clearing erythrocytes from the subarachnoid space and immune cells from the brain parenchyma following subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH). However, the drainage function of mLVs is impaired

Magnetic Resonance Imaging and Histopathological Visualization of Human Dural Lymphatic Vessels

open access: yesBio-Protocol, 2018
In this protocol, we describe a method to visualize and map dural lymphatic vessels in-vivo using magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and ex-vivo using histopathological techniques.

Incorporating meningeal immunity into vaccine development

open access: yesNature Communications
Meningeal immunity, a less-studied aspect of neuroimmune interactions, has recently come under the spotlight owing to the characterization of meningeal lymphatic vessels draining of the central nervous system (CNS).

The neurovascular unit as a selective barrier to polymorphonuclear granulocyte (PMN) infiltration into the brain after ischemic injury [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
The migration of polymorphonuclear granulocytes (PMN) into the brain parenchyma and release of their abundant proteases are considered the main causes of neuronal cell death and reperfusion injury following ischemia.

Non-invasive modulation of meningeal lymphatics ameliorates ageing and Alzheimer’s disease-associated pathology and cognition in mice

open access: yesNature Communications
Meningeal lymphatic vessels (mLVs) have been shown to be involved in amyloid beta (Aβ) clearance, which is considered as a potential therapeutic target for Alzheimer’s disease (AD).
