Gene-expression profiling of different arms of lymphatic vasculature identifies candidates for manipulation of cell traffic
6 Sept 2016
Abstract excerpt
Afferent lymphatic vessels bring antigens and diverse populations of leukocytes to draining lymph nodes, whereas efferent lymphatics allow only lymphocytes and antigens to leave the nodes. Despite the fundamental importance of afferent vs. efferent lymphatics in immune response and cancer spread, the molecular characteristics of these different arms of the lymphatic vasculature are largely unknown. The objective...
