Mechanisms of tubulointerstitial fibrosis.
The pathologic paradigm for renal progression is advancing tubulointerstitial fibrosis. Whereas mechanisms underlying fibrogenesis have grown in scope and understanding in recent decades, effective human treatment to directly halt or even reverse fibrosis remains elusive. Here, we examine key features mediating the molecular and cellular basis of tubulointerstitial fibrosis and highlight new in...
متن کاملAutotransplantation of lymphatic vessels.
SIR,-No treatment is available for tackling the underlying cause of secondary lymphoedema due to dissection of the lymphatic pathway at a specific site.’ A bypass within the lymphatic system seems the most promising way to eliminate the cause for swollen legs in the early stages of the disease, but materials other than lymphatic collectors cannot maintain an adequate lymph flow over a long peri...
متن کاملRadiation therapy causes loss of dermal lymphatic vessels and interferes with lymphatic function by TGF-beta1-mediated tissue fibrosis.
Although radiation therapy is a major risk factor for the development of lymphedema following lymphadenectomy, the mechanisms responsible for this effect remain unknown. The purpose of this study was therefore to determine the effects of radiation on lymphatic endothelial cells (LECs) and lymphatic function. The tails of wild-type or acid sphingomyelinase (ASM)-deficient mice were treated with ...

متن کاملBlood flow reprograms lymphatic vessels to blood vessels.
Human vascular malformations cause disease as a result of changes in blood flow and vascular hemodynamic forces. Although the genetic mutations that underlie the formation of many human vascular malformations are known, the extent to which abnormal blood flow can subsequently influence the vascular genetic program and natural history is not. Loss of the SH2 domain-containing leukocyte protein o...
