Arteries provide essential guidance cues for lymphatic endothelial cells in the zebrafish trunk
7 Jul 2010
Abstract excerpt
The endothelial cells of the vertebrate lymphatic system assemble into complex networks, but local cues that guide the migration of this distinct set of cells are currently unknown. As a model for lymphatic patterning, we have studied the simple vascular network of the zebrafish trunk consisting of three types of lymphatic vessels that develop in close connection with the blood vasculature. We have generated...
