Dramatic changes in lymphatic vessel contraction and in the lymph nodes that drain inflamed joints are associated with disease progression and response to therapy in murine models of rheumatoid ...

Explore the innovative concept of bioengineered lymph nodes as a promising solution for lymphedema after cancer surgery.

If we imagine our immune system to be a police force for our bodies, then previous work has suggested that the Lymph nodes would be the best candidate structures within the body to act as police ...

The frequent spread of certain cancers to lymph nodes often necessitates surgery or radiation therapy that damages the lymphatic system. The new study demonstrate for the first time that growth factor ...

Figure 1: Access to SLOs is important for maintenance of the peripheral T cell pool. Figure 3: The gp38 + CD31 − FRCs are the main source of IL-7 in naive lymph nodes. Figure 5: TRCs support the ...

The rising incidence of cancer worldwide has led to an increasing number of surgeries that involve the removal of lymph nodes ...

A new study from researchers at Uppsala University presents novel findings on why human lymph nodes lose their function with age and the consequences for the effectiveness of our immune system. The ...

If we imagine our immune system to be a police force for our bodies, then previous work has suggested that the Lymph nodes would be the best candidate structures within the body to act as police ...

A recent paper in Nature Biomedical Engineering, by Dr. David J. Mooney demonstrated how a new vaccine can enhance and maintain lymph node function to boost immunity against cancer in mice. Mooney, a ...

Stanford University-led researchers report that tumor cells hijack mitochondria from immune cells, reducing anti-tumor immune function and activating cGAS-STING and type I interferon signaling that ...
