The formation of new blood vessels, or angiogenesis, is a complex process that plays
important roles in growth and development, tissue and organ regeneration, as well as …

Blood vessels form a closed circulatory system, whereas lymphatic vessels form a one-way
conduit for tissue fluid and leukocytes. In most vertebrates, the main function of lymphatic …

Angiogenesis and lymphangiogenesis often occur in response to tissue injury or in the
presence of pathology (eg, cancer), and it is these types of environments in which …

Introduction Different mesenchymal stromal cells (MSC) have been successfully isolated
and expanded in vitro and nowadays they are tested in clinical trials for a wide variety of …

Over the past few decades, inorganic nanoparticles, which exhibit significantly distinct
physical, chemical and biological properties from their bulk counterpart's, have elicited much …

The lymphatic vasculature forms a vessel network that drains interstitial fluid from tissues
and returns it to the blood. Lymphatic vessels are also an essential part of the body's …

Over the past 2 decades, mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) have attracted a lot of interest as
a unique therapeutic approach for a variety of diseases. MSCs are capable of self-renewal …

Lymphangiogenesis, an important initial step in tumor metastasis and transplant
sensitization, is mediated by the action of VEGF-C and-D on VEGFR3. In contrast, VEGF-A …

Human adult mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) support the engineering of functional tissue
constructs by secreting angiogenic and cytoprotective factors, which act in a paracrine …

Metastatic spread of cancer through the lymphatic system affects hundreds of thousands of
patients yearly. Growth of new lymphatic vessels, lymphangiogenesis, is activated in cancer …
