Abstract:
The lack of adequate methods for the simultaneous detection of lymphatic and blood microvessels in hollow organs does not make it possible to determine the morphological basis of lymph formation and lymph dynamics. In the relevant scientific literature, information about of the structural organization of the lymphatic system, obtained using transmission and scanning electron microscopy, does not provide exhaustive answers to the currently controversial and unresolved issues of the structural organization of the lymphatic microcirculatory bed.

Abstract:
Diminished lymphatic function and abnormal morphology are common in chronic inflammatory diseases. Recent studies are investigating whether it is possible to target chronic inflammation by promoting resolution of inflammation, in order to enhance lymphatic function and attenuate disease. Resolution of inflammation is an active process regulated by bioactive lipids known as specialized pro-resolving mediators (SPMs). SPMs can modulate leukocyte migration and function, alter cytokine/chemokine release, modify autophagy, among other immune-related activities. Here, we summarize the role of the ly

Abstract:
The ability of the lymphatic system to actively remove fluid from the interstitium is critical to the resolution of edema. The response of the lymphatics to inflammatory situations is poorly studied, so we examined mesenteric lymphatic contractile activity in the 2,4,6-trinitrobenzenesulfonic acid (TNBS) model of guinea pig ileitis, a well-accepted animal model of intestinal inflammation, by videomicroscopy in vivo and in vitro 1, 3, and 6 days after induction of ileitis. Lymphatic function (diameter, constriction frequency, amplitude of constrictions, and calculated stroke volume and lymph fl

Abstract:
Chyluria is the passage of chyle in the urine. The cause seems to be the rupture of retroperitoneal lymphatics into the pyelocaliceal system, giving urine a milky appearance. This communication is caused by the obstruction of lymphatic drainage proximal to intestinal lacteals, resulting in dilatation of distal lymphatics and the eventual rupture of lymphatic vessels into the urinary collecting system. This condition, if left untreated, leads to significant morbidity because of hematochyluria, recurrent renal colic, nutritional problems due to protein losses and immunosuppression resulting from

Abstract:
Intravenous fluid infusions cause increased venous pressure and increased lymph flow throughout the body. Together the increased lymph flow and increased venous pressure (the outflow pressure to the lymphatic system) should increase the pressure within the postnodal intestinal lymphatics. To test this, we measured the pressure in postnodal intestinal lymphatics and the neck vein pressure in five awake sheep. At baseline, the neck vein pressure was 1.2 +/- 1.5 (SD) cmH2O and the lymphatic pressure was 12.5 +/- 1.7 cmH2O. When we infused Ringer solution intravenously (10% body weight in approxim

Abstract:
Lymphoma is general term for a group of blood cancers that start in lymphatic system, which includes circulating lymphocytes, lymph nodes (also called lymphatic gland), spleen, tonsils, adenoids, payer patches, thymus, and bone marrow, as well as the channels (called lymphatic's or lymph vessels) that connect them, also which is a part of body's immune system and helps filter out bacteria, viruses, and the other unwanted substance.

Abstract:
AbstractLymphatics have long been overshadowed by the remainder of the circulatory system. Historically, lymphatics were difficult to study because of their small and indistinct vessels, colorless fluid contents, and limited effective interventions. However, the past several decades have brought increased funding, advanced imaging technologies, and novel interventional techniques to the field. Understanding the history of lymphatic anatomy and physiology is vital to further realize the role lymphatics play in most major disease pathologies and innovate interventional solutions for them.

Abstract:
The lymphatic system is important for return of extra-vascular fluid to the blood circulation, conductance of hormones and immune cell trafficking. Delicate hormonal control of fluid conductance during reproductive cycles is exemplified by the ovarian hyperstimulation syndrome, a dangerous condition of hypovolemia caused by fluid accumulation in the abdomen and reproductive tissues, in response to hormonal hyperstimulation. This study is the first to investigate the relationship between ovarian lymphatic development and follicle growth. Quantitative morphometric analysis of vessel size and num

Abstract:
Breast-cancer-acquired lymphedema is routinely diagnosed from the appearance of irreversible swelling that occurs as a result of lymphatic dysfunction. Yet in head and neck cancer survivors, lymphatic dysfunction may not always result in clinically overt swelling, but instead contribute to debilitating functional outcomes. In this review, we describe how cancer metastasis, lymph node dissection, and radiation therapy alter lymphatic function, as visualized by near-infrared fluorescence lymphatic imaging.
