Visualization of embryonic lymphangiogenesis advances the use of the zebrafish model for research in cancer and lymphatic pathologies
20 May 2010
Abstract excerpt
Lymphangiogenesis induced during tumor growth contributes to metastasis. Genetic and chemical screens using the zebrafish model have the potential to enhance our understanding of lymphangiogenesis, and lead to the discovery of pharmacological agents with activity in the lymphatic system. Large-scale screening of lymphatic development in the whole zebrafish embryo requires a specific lymphatic endothelial cell...
