BACKGROUND Blood and lymphatic vessel networks form two arms of the vertebrate
cardiovascular system that play complementary roles in body homeostasis maintenance and …

The lymphatic system, composed of initial and collecting lymphatic vessels as well as lymph
nodes that are present in almost every tissue of the human body, acts as an essential …

Lymphatic vessels maintain tissue fluid homeostasis by returning to blood circulation
interstitial fluid that has extravasated from the blood capillaries. They provide a trafficking …

The lymphatic system is comprised of a network of vessels interrelated with lymphoid tissue,
which has the holistic function to maintain the local physiologic environment for every cell in …

Blood and lymphatic vessels pervade almost all body tissues and have numerous essential
roles in physiology and disease. The inner lining of these networks is formed by a single …

Vascular endothelial growth factors (VEGFs) are best known for their involvement in
orchestrating the development and maintenance of the blood and lymphatic vascular …

Vascular endothelial growth factor C (VEGF-C) induces lymphangiogenesis via VEGF
receptor 3 (VEGFR3), which is encoded by the most frequently mutated gene in human …

The recent discovery of meningeal lymphatic vessels (LVs) has raised interest in their
possible involvement in neuropathological processes, yet little is known about their …

The mammalian circulatory system comprises both the cardiovascular system and the
