Structural and functional features of central nervous system lymphatic vessels
One of the characteristics of the central nervous system is the lack of a classical lymphatic
drainage system. Although it is now accepted that the central nervous system undergoes …

Lymphangiogenesis in development and human disease
K Alitalo, T Tammela, TV Petrova - Nature, 2005 - nature.com
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 …

Meningeal lymphatic vessels at the skull base drain cerebrospinal fluid
Recent work has shown that meningeal lymphatic vessels (mLVs), mainly in the dorsal part
of the skull, are involved in the clearance of cerebrospinal fluid (CSF), but the precise route …

Lymphatics in neurological disorders: a neuro-lympho-vascular component of multiple sclerosis and Alzheimer's disease?
Lymphatic vasculature drains interstitial fluids, which contain the tissue's waste products,
and ensures immune surveillance of the tissues, allowing immune cell recirculation. Until …

Neuroinflammation creates an immune regulatory niche at the meningeal lymphatic vasculature near the cribriform plate
Meningeal lymphatics near the cribriform plate undergo lymphangiogenesis during
neuroinflammation to drain excess fluid. Here, we hypothesized that lymphangiogenic …
