Impaired Humoral Immunity and Tolerance in K14-VEGFR-3-Ig Mice That Lack Dermal Lymphatic Drainage

Melody Swartz, Joseph Rutkowski, Miriella Carmela Pasquier, Susan Thomas

Lymphatic vessels transport interstitial fluid, soluble Ag, and immune cells from peripheral tissues to lymph nodes (LNs), yet the contribution of peripheral lymphatic drainage to adaptive immunity remains poorly understood. We examined immune responses to ...

VEGF-C Promotes Immune Tolerance in B16 Melanomas and Cross-Presentation of Tumor Antigen by Lymph Node Lymphatics

Melody Swartz, Sachiko Hirosue, Amanda Waite Lund, Susan Thomas, Amine Issa, Vidya Raghavan

Tumor expression of the lymphangiogenic factor VEGF-C is correlated with metastasis and poor prognosis, and although VEGF-C enhances transport to the draining lymph node (dLN) and antigen exposure to the adaptive immune system, its role in tumor immunity r ...

Targeting the tumor-draining lymph node with adjuvanted nanoparticles reshapes the anti-tumor immune response

Jeffrey Alan Hubbell, Efthymia Vokali, Melody Swartz, Amanda Waite Lund, Susan Thomas

Accumulating evidence implicates the tumor-draining lymph node (TDLN) in tumor-induced immune escape, as it drains regulatory molecules and leukocytes from the tumor microenvironment. We asked whether targeted delivery of adjuvant to the TDLN, presumably a ...
