Multiparameter fluorescence-activated cell sorting (FACS) procedure separates target cells from a total population of cells by using specific signatures that the target cell expresses on their cell surface. For human lymphatic endothelial cells (LECs) this relates to cell surface expression of the CD34LowCD31HighVEGFR-3HighPodoplaninHigh profile that permits their separation from blood vascular endothelial cells and other cells likely to be present in the digested tissue sample. In addition, FACS allows the evaluation of LEC size, volume, granularity, and purity at the time of sorting.
