The cells that make up the walls of the finest of all lymphatic vessels have a lobate, oak leaf-like shape that makes them particularly resilient to changes in fluid volume. A similar cell shape also ...

The lobate shape of lymphatic endothelial cells puzzled researchers—now they’ve found it helps stabilize lymphatic ...

Certain cells have an unusual shape that is similar to an oak leaf or puzzle piece, and researchers have found that the form of these cells ... | Cell And Molecular Biology ...

The shapes of these cells are puzzling. They have wavy edges and protrusions that fit together a bit like puzzle pieces. But what is it for? New research looking at the lymph capillary cells ...

This photograph highlights the structure of both the vascular and lymphatic systems. The ear is injected intradermally with blue dye to visualize the lymphatic vessels (lymphangiography).

Cell-cell communication is essential for the formation of complex multicellular structures and guidance of migrating cells. Lymphatic system is composed of treelike lymphatic vessel networks, lymph ...
