AVERTISSEMENT : Le chatbot Graph n'est pas programmé pour fournir des réponses explicites ou catégoriques à vos questions. Il transforme plutôt vos questions en demandes API qui sont distribuées aux différents services informatiques officiellement administrés par l'EPFL.

Interstitial flow plays important roles in the morphogenesis, function, and pathogenesis of tissues. To investigate these roles and exploit them for tissue engineering or to overcome barriers to drug delivery, a comprehensive consideration of the interstit ...
Tissue morphogenesis and remodeling is often orchestrated by cell-secreted proteins, referred to as morphogens that can trigger cellular responses in addition to modifying the local extracellular matrix (ECM). Of specific interest is the distribution of ce ...
Dynamic stresses that are present in all living tissues drive small fluid flows, called interstitial flows, through the extracellular matrix. Interstitial flow not only helps to transport nutrients throughout the tissue, but also has important roles in tis ...
Decreased interstitial flow (IF) in secondary lymphedema is coincident with poor physiological lymphatic regeneration. However, both the existence and direction of causality between IF and lymphangiogenesis remain unclear. This is primarily because the rol ...
CCR7 is implicated in lymph node metastasis of cancer, but its role is obscure. We report a mechanism explaining how interstitial flow caused by lymphatic drainage directs tumor cell migration by autocrine CCR7 signaling. Under static conditions, lymphatic ...
The range of applications of mathematical modelling in biosciences has recently expanded to encompass problems posed by biomedicine and sport sciences. Topics of interest are for instance the prediction of the response of an athlete to exercise, the pharma ...
Interstitial fluid flow has been shown to affect the organization and behavior of cells in 3D environments in vivo and in vitro, yet the forces driving such responses are not clear. Due to the complex architecture of the extracellular matrix (ECM) and the ...
Effective interstitial transport of particles is necessary for injected drug/diagnostic agents to reach the intended target; however, quantitative methods to estimate such transport parameters are lacking. In this study we develop an in vivo model for eval ...
Lymphatic vessels exist in nearly all tissues, yet, despite their omnipresence, there remains a large knowledge gap between the described fundamental roles of lymphatic capillaries and our understanding of their functional biology, adaptive ability, and pa ...
To date, adult lymphangiogenesis is not well understood. In this study we describe the evolution of lymphatic capillaries in regenerating skin and correlate lymphatic migration and organization with the expression of matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs), immun ...
