The optimum marker for the detection of lymphatic vessels
نویسندگان
چکیده
Podoplanin, lymphatic vessel endothelial hyaluronic acid receptor-1, prospero-related homeobox-1 and vascular endothelial growth factor receptor 3 have been demonstrated to have crucial roles in the development of the lymphatic system and lymphangiogenesis process by combining with their corresponding receptors. Thus, the four markers have been widely used in labelling lymphatic vessels for the detection of lymphangiogenesis and lymphatic vessel invasion. Numerous authors have aimed to identify the roles of these four markers in the lymphatic system and the mechanisms have been partly clarified at the molecular level. The aim of the present review was to comprehensively clarify the characteristics and latent action modes of the four markers in order to determine which is the best one for the detection of lymphangiogenesis and lymphatic vessel invasion.

The clinical study for lingual disease requires the detailed investigation of the lingual lymphatic network and lymphatic marker-positive cells. Recently, it has been reported that several tissue cells and leukocytes express lymphatic markers, LYVE-1 and podoplanin. This study was aimed to clarify the lingual distribution of cells expressing LYVE-1 and podoplanin. In the mouse tongue, podoplani...

In this investigation a suitable algorithm for the detection of cracks in the pressure vessels is presented. The equations of motion for the vessel are obtained and transferred into the wavelet space in a simplified form resulted from time and position approximations. The locations of cracks are randomly distributed in different regions of the structure to cover the whole geometry of the pressu...
متن کاملMarker in Human Cutaneous Melanoma Expression on Tumor Microvasculature as a New Progression Induction of Vascular Endothelial Growth Factor Receptor-3
The anatomical relation between a malignant tumor and its vascular and lymphatic bed is an important factor influencing metastasis. Lack of specific markers for the lymphatic endothelium has long hampered a reliable detection of lymphatics. Here, we demonstrate that lymphatic endothelium can reliably be identified in a panel of different normal tissues and of benign and malignant tumors. Applic...

Accurately detection of retinal landmarks, like optic disc, is an important step in the computer aided diagnosis frameworks. This paper presents an efficient method for automatic detection of the optic disc’s center and estimating its boundary. The center and initial diameter of optic disc are estimated by employing an ANN classifier. The ANN classifier employs visual features of vessels and th...
