Emerging Roles of Meningeal Lymphatic Vessels in Alzheimer's Disease. [PDF]

J Alzheimers Dis, 2023
Meningeal lymphatic vessels (mLVs), the functional lymphatic system present in the meninges, are the key drainage route responsible for the clearance of molecules, immune cells, and cellular debris from the cerebrospinal fluid and interstitial fluid into deep cervical lymph nodes.

Delivery of Biomimetic Liposomes via Meningeal Lymphatic Vessels Route for Targeted Therapy of Parkinson's Disease. [PDF]

Research (Wash D C), 2023
Targeted therapy of Parkinson’s disease is an important challenge because of the blood–brain barrier limitation. Here, we propose a natural killer cell membrane biomimetic nanocomplex (named BLIPO-CUR) delivered via the meningeal lymphatic vessel (MLV) route to further the therapeutic efficacy of Parkinson’s disease.

Development and plasticity of meningeal lymphatic vessels. [PDF]

J Exp Med, 2017
The recent discovery of meningeal lymphatic vessels (LVs) has raised interest in their possible involvement in neuropathological processes, yet little is known about their development or maintenance. We show here that meningeal LVs develop postnatally, appearing first around the foramina in the basal parts of the skull and spinal canal, sprouting along

Piezo1 agonist restores meningeal lymphatic vessels, drainage, and brain-CSF perfusion in craniosynostosis and aged mice. [PDF]

J Clin Invest, 2023
AbstractSkull development coincides with the onset of cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) circulation, brain-CSF perfusion, and meningeal lymphangiogenesis, processes essential for brain waste clearance. How these processes are affected by craniofacial disorders such as craniosynostosis are poorly understood.

How Do Meningeal Lymphatic Vessels Drain the CNS? [PDF]

Trends Neurosci, 2016
The many interactions between the nervous and the immune systems, which are active in both physiological and pathological states, have recently become more clearly delineated with the discovery of a meningeal lymphatic system capable of carrying fluid, immune cells, and macromolecules from the central nervous system (CNS) to the draining deep cervical ...

Overview of the meningeal lymphatic vessels in aging and central nervous system disorders. [PDF]

Cell Biosci, 2022
AbstractIn the aging process and central nervous system (CNS) diseases, the functions of the meningeal lymphatic vessels (MLVs) are impaired. Alterations in MLVs have been observed in aging-related neurodegenerative diseases, brain tumors, and even cerebrovascular disease. These findings reveal a new perspective on aging and CNS disorders and provide a

Meningeal lymphatic vessels regulate brain tumor drainage and immunity. [PDF]

Cell Res, 2020
AbstractRecent studies have shown that meningeal lymphatic vessels (MLVs), which are located both dorsally and basally beneath the skull, provide a route for draining macromolecules and trafficking immune cells from the central nervous system (CNS) into cervical lymph nodes (CLNs), and thus represent a potential therapeutic target for treating ...

Inactivation of ERK1/2 signaling mediates dysfunction of basal meningeal lymphatic vessels in experimental subdural hematoma. [PDF]

Theranostics, 2023
Rationale: Meningeal lymphatic vessels (MLVs) are essential for the clearance of subdural hematoma (SDH). However, SDH impairs their drainage function, and the pathogenesis remains unclear. Herein, we aimed to understand the pathological mechanisms of MLV dysfunction following SDH and to test whether atorvastatin, an effective drug for SDH clearance ...

Brain lymphatic vessels accompanying meningeal arteries in the human

Translational Research in Anatomy
Introduction: Recent studies showed the connection between cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) and deep cervical lymph nodes (dCLN) via lymphatic vessels (LV)s. These LVs accompany dural sinuses, cranial nerves, and arteries.
