Myocardial infarction (MI) arising from obstruction of the coronary circulation engenders
massive cardiomyocyte loss and replacement by non-contractile scar tissue, leading to …

The lymphatic network of mammalian heart is an important regulator of interstitial fluid
compartment and immune cell trafficking. We observed a remodeling of the cardiac …

In recent years, there has been increasing interest in the role of lymphatics in organ repair
and regeneration, due to their importance in immune surveillance and fluid homeostasis …

The removal of interstitial fluid from the tissues is performed exclusively by the lymphatic
system. Tissue edema in congestive heart failure occurs only when the lymphatic system …

Lymphatic vessels have historically been viewed as passive conduits for fluid and immune
cells, but this perspective is increasingly being revised as new functions of lymphatic vessels …

Lymphatic vessels are low-pressure, blind-ended tubular structures that play a crucial role in
the maintenance of tissue fluid homeostasis, immune cell trafficking, and dietary lipid uptake …

Abstract Purpose of Review Lymphatic disorders have received an increasing amount of
attention over the last decade. Sparked primarily by improved imaging modalities and the …

Macrophages are components of the innate immune system with key roles in tissue
inflammation and repair. It is now evident that macrophages also support organogenesis …
