Local induction of lymphangiogenesis with engineered fibrin-binding VEGF-C promotes wound healing by increasing immune cell trafficking and matrix remodeling

Jeffrey Alan Hubbell, Melody Swartz, Witold Waldemar Kilarski, Priscilla Suhasna Maithili Briquez, Esra Güç, Manuel Andreas Fankhauser

Lymphangiogenesis occurs in inflammation and wound healing, yet its functional roles in these processes are not fully understood. Consequently, clinically relevant strategies for therapeutic lymphangiogenesis remain underdeveloped, particularly using growt ...

CD4+ T cell activation and vascular normalization: Two sides of the same coin?

Michele De Palma

Normalization of tumor blood vessels enhances the infiltration and functions of T cells. Tian et al. (2017) report that effector CD4+ T cells, in turn, support vascular normalization, highlighting intertwined roles for blood vessels and T cells in cancer. ...

Transcellular Pathways in Lymphatic Endothelial Cells Regulate Changes in Solute Transport by Fluid Stress

Melody Swartz, Marco Pisano, Witold Waldemar Kilarski, Esra Güç, Valentina Triacca

Rationale: The transport of interstitial fluid and solutes into lymphatic vessels is important for maintaining interstitial homeostasis and delivering antigens and soluble factors to the lymph node for immune surveillance. Transendothelial transport across ...

Design principles for therapeutic angiogenic materials

Jeffrey Alan Hubbell, Mikaël Martino, Priscilla Suhasna Maithili Briquez

Despite extensive research, pro-angiogenic drugs have failed to translate clinically, and therapeutic angiogenesis, which has potential in the treatment of various cardiovascular diseases, remains a major challenge. Physiologically, angiogenesis - the proc ...

Laser-assisted inkjet printing of highly viscous fluids with sub-nozzle resolution

Demetri Psaltis, Christophe Moser, Paul Delrot, Miguel Antonio Modestino

Drop-on-demand inkjet printing is mostly based on thermal and piezo-actuation, allowing for densely packed nozzles in inkjet printers. However, the droplet diameter is typically defined by the nozzle diameter, thus limiting the range of viscosity that can ...

Optical-resolution photoacoustic imaging through thick tissue with a thin capillary as a dual optical-in acoustic-out waveguide

Demetri Psaltis, Christophe Moser, Nicolino Stasio, Emmanuel André Henri Bossy

We demonstrate the ability to guide high-frequency photoacoustic waves through thick tissue with a water-filled silica-capillary (150 mu m inner diameter and 30 mm long). An optical-resolution photoacoustic image of a 30 mu m diameter absorbing nylon threa ...

FOXC2 and fluid shear stress stabilize postnatal lymphatic vasculature

Nadine Fournier, Mauro Delorenzi, Yan Agalarov, Esther Bovay

Biomechanical forces, such as fluid shear stress, govern multiple aspects of endothelial cell biology. In blood vessels, disturbed flow is associated with vascular diseases, such as atherosclerosis, and promotes endothelial cell proliferation and apoptosis ...

Collecting Lymphatic Vessel Permeability Facilitates Adipose Tissue Inflammation and Distribution of Antigen to Lymph Node-Homing Adipose Tissue Dendritic Cells

Melody Swartz, Wei Wang

Collecting lymphatic vessels (CLVs), surrounded by fat and endowed with contractile muscle and valves, transport lymph from tissues after it is absorbed into lymphatic capillaries. CLVs are not known to participate in immune responses. In this study, we ob ...
