1. 1. Lymphatic Vascular Morphogenesis : From Progenitors to Functional Vessels

   Författare :Nina Daubel; Taija Mäkinen; Markus Affolter; Uppsala universitet; []
   Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Lymphatic vasculature; morphogenesis; lymphvasculogenesis; mesentery; lymphatic capillary;

   Sammanfattning : The lymphatic vasculature is an important part of the circulatory system and crucial for normal functioning and maintenance of tissues. Yet, our understanding of the processes underlying lymphatic development and homeostasis are surprisingly limited. LÄS MER

3. 2. Organ-specific mechanisms of vascular development in the mesentery

   Författare :Yang Zhang; Taija Mäkinen; Wiebke Herzog; Uppsala universitet; []
   Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Lymphatic vasculature; mesentery; hemogenic endothelium; lymphvasculogenesis; endothelial integrity; platelet; blood-filled lymphatic vessel; morphogenesis and maturation; compensation;

   Sammanfattning : Understanding how the vascular systems are formed has significant clinical importance. General mechanisms underlying vascular development have been extensively studied during the past decades. However, the mechanisms regulating the development and function of the blood and lymphatic vessels in specific organs are poorly understood. LÄS MER

4. 3. Lymphangiogenesis and lymphatic metastasis

   Författare :Meit A Björndahl; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
   Nyckelord :Angiogenesis; lymphangiogenesis; lymphatic metastasis; PDGF; IGF; VEGF-A;

   Sammanfattning : The major cause of cancer mortality is metastasis, which relies on the growth of blood vessels (haemangiogenesis) and lymphatic vessels (lymphangiogenesis). Whereas the field of haemangiogenesis has been relatively thoroughly studied, little is known about the mechanisms regulating lymphangiogenesis. LÄS MER
