Paraxial mesoderm as a direct gateway to lymphatic endothelial cells

januari 16, 2025

Valeria Orlova and Tatiana Petrova have published a paper in Nature Cardiovascular Research in which the origins of mammalian lymphatic vessels have been studied. In conclusion, the centripetal model via the paraxial mesoderm lineage may offer a more promising approach for direct differentiation of LECS in vitro without the need to pass through an intermediate venous lineage via the centrifugal model.

LymphChip review paper on the interplay between lymph node extracellular matrix, fibroblasts and immune cells

maart 7, 2025

Daphne Panocha and Reina Mebius have published a review in Trends in Immunology about the complex interplay between lymph node extracellular matrix, fibroblasts and immune cells. Understanding this interplay will help the development of a human physiological lymph node-on-chip which can mimic human adaptive immune responses.
