Article Abstract

Percutaneous endovascular techniques established in interventional cardiology and radiology are well-suited for managing lymphatic conduction disorders. In this article, we provide a synopsis of technical aspects of these procedures, including access of the thoracic duct, selective lymphatic embolization, and management of thoracic duct obstruction. In aggregate, these techniques have developed into an integral component of multidisciplinary management of these complex diseases.

Intussusception associated with congenital lymphangioma in a dog.

Can Vet J

September 2025

Department of Companion Animals (Devine, MacLean, Hoddinott) and Department of Pathology and Microbiology (Buote), Atlantic Veterinary College, University of Prince Edward Island, 550 University Avenue, Charlottetown, Prince Edward Island C1A 4P3.

A 12-week-old intact male golden retriever dog was referred to our clinic with a history of recurrent diarrhea and rectal prolapse and because of a suspected intussusception. An abdominal ultrasound was conducted to confirm the suspicion of an intussusception. An exploratory laparotomy identified a jejuno-ileo-cecal-colic intussusception that was manually reduced.

Background: Gastric cancer is one of the most common cancers worldwide, with its prognosis influenced by factors such as tumor clinical stage, histological type, and the patient's overall health. Recent studies highlight the critical role of lymphatic endothelial cells (LECs) in the tumor microenvironment. Perturbations in LEC function in gastric cancer, marked by aberrant activation or damage, disrupt lymphatic fluid dynamics and impede immune cell infiltration, thereby modulating tumor progression and patient prognosis.

Hormonal receptor status and lymph nodes involvement in breast cancer: a retrospective study.

Cell Mol Biol (Noisy-le-grand)

September 2025

Assistant Professor of General Surgery, Department of Surgery, College of Medicine, University of Duhok, Kurdistan Region, Iraq.

Hormonal status and lymphatic invasion are two important prognostic factors among cases of breast cancer. This study aims to assess and evaluate the hormonal receptor status and lymph node involvement among female breast cancer patients in Duhok city, Kurdistan region, Iraq. A retrospective cross-sectional study was conducted, involving 156 diagnosed cases of breast cancer who had undergone surgical treatment and laboratory investigations at Azadi Teaching Hospital and Duhok Private Hospital for 30 months.

Organelle stresses and energetic metabolisms promote endothelial-to-mesenchymal transition and fibrosis via upregulating FOSB and MEOX1 in Alzheimer's disease.

Front Mol Neurosci

August 2025

Department of Cardiovascular Sciences, Lewis Katz School of Medicine, Lemole Center for Integrated Lymphatics and Vascular Research, Temple University, Philadelphia, PA, United States.

Introduction: Endothelial-to-mesenchymal transition (EndoMT), cell death, and fibrosis are increasingly recognized as contributing factors to Alzheimer's disease (AD) pathology, but the underlying transcriptomic mechanisms remain poorly defined. This study aims to elucidate transcriptomic changes associated with EndoMT, diverse cell death pathways, and fibrosis in AD using the 3xTg-AD mouse model.

Methods: Using RNA-seq data and knowledge-based transcriptomic analysis on brain tissues from the 3xTg-AD mouse model of AD.

Background: Tertiary lymphoid structures (TLSs) are linked to prognosis in esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC), but whether the distribution, abundance, and maturity of TLSs affect therapeutic efficacy and prognosis in ESCC treated with neoadjuvant chemoradiotherapy plus immunotherapy (NRCI) remains unclear. We explored TLS characteristics and correlated them with patient survival.

Methods: A total of 157 resectable ESCC patients treated with neoadjuvant therapy between September 2020 and May 2023 were divided into NRCI (n=49) and neoadjuvant chemoimmunotherapy (NCI, n=108) groups.
