Cutting edge: lymphatic vessels, not blood vessels, primarily mediate immune rejections after transplantation.
The purpose of this study was to determine the relative importance of blood vessels (hemangiogenesis) versus lymphatic vessels (lymphangiogenesis) in mediating immunological responses after transplantation. Using the murine model of corneal transplantation, graft survival was compared in differentially prevascularized and avascular recipient beds. Donor corneas (C57BL/6) were transplanted into ...
متن کاملBlood flow reprograms lymphatic vessels to blood vessels.
Human vascular malformations cause disease as a result of changes in blood flow and vascular hemodynamic forces. Although the genetic mutations that underlie the formation of many human vascular malformations are known, the extent to which abnormal blood flow can subsequently influence the vascular genetic program and natural history is not. Loss of the SH2 domain-containing leukocyte protein o...
متن کاملThe Behaviour of Blood Vessels after Experimental Transplantation of Bone.
Everybody with experience in bone transplantation agrees that autogenous grafts give the best results. In clinical practice, however, it is often difficult or impossible to get an autogenous graft. This is why bone banks exist. At the orthopaedic department of the University of Amsterdam we prefer the deep-frozen homogenous graft, but many surgeons use other types of banked bone. The results ob...
متن کاملAutotransplantation of lymphatic vessels.
SIR,-No treatment is available for tackling the underlying cause of secondary lymphoedema due to dissection of the lymphatic pathway at a specific site.’ A bypass within the lymphatic system seems the most promising way to eliminate the cause for swollen legs in the early stages of the disease, but materials other than lymphatic collectors cannot maintain an adequate lymph flow over a long peri...
متن کاملLymphatic vessels regulate immune microenvironments in human and murine melanoma.
Lymphatic remodeling in tumor microenvironments correlates with progression and metastasis, and local lymphatic vessels play complex and poorly understood roles in tumor immunity. Tumor lymphangiogenesis is associated with increased immune suppression, yet lymphatic vessels are required for fluid drainage and immune cell trafficking to lymph nodes, where adaptive immune responses are mounted. H...
