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.

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

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 ...

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 ...

Enhancing Th17 cells drainage through meningeal lymphatic vessels alleviate neuroinflammation after subarachnoid hemorrhage. [PDF]

J Neuroinflammation
Abstract Background Subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH) is a severe cerebrovascular disorder primarily caused by the rupture of aneurysm, which results in a high mortality rate and consequently imposes a significant burden on society. The occurrence of SAH initiates an immune response that further exacerbates brain damage.

Meningeal lymphatic vessel crosstalk with central nervous system immune cells in aging and neurodegenerative diseases

Neural Regeneration Research
Meningeal lymphatic vessels form a relationship between the nervous system and periphery, which is relevant in both health and disease. Meningeal lymphatic vessels not only play a key role in the drainage of brain metabolites but also contribute to ...

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.

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.

Advancing insights into in vivo meningeal lymphatic vessels with stereoscopic wide-field photoacoustic microscopy. [PDF]

Light Sci Appl
AbstractMeningeal lymphatic vessels (mLVs) play a pivotal role in regulating metabolic waste from cerebrospinal fluid (CSF). However, the current limitations in field of view and resolution of existing imaging techniques impede understanding the stereoscopic morphology and dynamic behavior of mLVs in vivo.
