Development and Plasticity of Meningeal Lymphatic Vessels [PDF]

Journal of Experimental Medicine, 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.

The Interplay Between Meningeal Lymphatic Vessels and Neuroinflammation in Neurodegenerative Diseases [PDF]

Current Neuropharmacology
Abstract: Meningeal lymphatic vessels (MLVs) are essential for the drainage of cerebrospinal fluid, macromolecules, and immune cells in the central nervous system. They play critical roles in modulating neuroinflammation in neurodegenerative diseases. Dysfunctional MLVs have been demonstrated to increase neuroinflammation by horizontally blocking the ...

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.

Widespread distribution of lymphatic vessels in human dura mater remote from sinus veins [PDF]

Frontiers in Cell and Developmental Biology, 2023
Background and purpose: Previous experimental studies have shown that meningeal lymphatic vessels are located primarily along the walls of the dural sinus veins.

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 ...

Cells with Many Talents: Lymphatic Endothelial Cells in the Brain Meninges

Cells, 2021
The lymphatic system serves key functions in maintaining fluid homeostasis, the uptake of dietary fats in the small intestine, and the trafficking of immune cells. Almost all vascularized peripheral tissues and organs contain lymphatic vessels. The brain

The role of the meningeal lymphatic system in local meningeal inflammation and trigeminal nociception [PDF]

Scientific Reports, 2022
A system of lymphatic vessels has been recently characterized in the meninges, with a postulated role in ‘cleaning’ the brain via cerebral fluid drainage.

Meningeal Lymphatic and Glymphatic Structures in a Pelagic Delphinid (Delphinus delphis)

Animals
The glymphatic system, an analog of the peripheral lymphatic system in the brain, and the meningeal lymphatic system are critical to central nervous system health.

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

eLife, 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.

Characteristic Features of Deep Brain Lymphatic Vessels and Their Regulation by Chronic Stress

Research, 2023
Studies have demonstrated that a functional network of meningeal lymphatic vessels exists in the brain. However, it is unknown whether lymphatic vessels could also extend deep into the brain parenchyma and whether the vessels could be regulated by ...
