DOI: 10.1016/j.atherosclerosis.2019.01.031
Abstract: BACKGROUND AND AIMS Our previous data showed that lymphatic function impairment occurs before the onset of atherosclerosis in mice and is precociously associated with a defect in the propelling capacity of the collecting lymphatic vessels.… read more here.

DOI: 10.14814/phy2.15401
Abstract: Spontaneous action potentials precede phasic contractile activity in human collecting lymphatic vessels. In this study, we investigated the expression of hyperpolarization‐activated cyclic nucleotide‐gated (HCN) channels in human collecting lymphatics and by pharmacological inhibition ex vivo… read more here.
