Normal Anatomy The lymphatic system is a complex network of lymph nodes connected by lymphatic capillaries and ducts that play an important role in the immune system. It provides protection against organisms, particulate matter, and neoplastic cells by the processes of phagocytosis, cell-mediated and...
About 1,200 lymph nodes were localized in the data set and their distribution was compared with data from current cross‐sectional lymphatic atlases. The identified nodes were delineated and then labeled with different colors that corresponded to their anatomical locations. A series of 2D ...
Regions of the lymph node are labeled. In this movie, Blimp-1+ cell (in red) migration is highly linear and randomly oriented with respect to the lymph node anatomy. Two cells are seen “crashing” into the capsule of the follicle, and not migrating to the medulla. In the medullary ...
This method is based on an EIS system that analyses two electrical impedance features of the nodes named Z1kHz and impedance phase slope (IPS). Given that not all centers possess FS facilities, this diagnostic tool could serve as a valuable aid in addressing this issue. Furthermore, it has ...
Transport of tissue-derived lymphatic fluid and clearance by draining lymph nodes are pivotal for maintenance of fluid homeostasis in the body and for immune-surveillance of the self- and non-self-proteomes. Yet a quantitative analysis of nodal filtratio
(CFSE)–labeled pDC precursors i.v. into HSV-infected mice on day 2. By 2 h, the transferred pDC precursors were in close contact with LNDCs in the paracortex, and some were associated with pDCs in the perifollicular zone (Fig. 2 C). 48 h later, transferred pDC precursors were ...
For NP-PE–ICs, draining lymph nodes were processed together with lymph nodes from mice containing CFSE-labeled QM cells that did not receive NP-PE. Single-cell suspensions were stained as described19 with Pacific blue–conjugated mono- clonal anti-CD19 (6D5) plus Alexa Fluor 700–conjugated ...
Intact lymph nodes containing CFSE-labeled polyclonal T cells and SNARF-labeled DCs were visualized by real-time two-photon imaging. Individual cells were imaged every 10 s for about 10 min. (a) Mean velocity of 16 individual T cells and DCs (left) and peak velocity achieved during the peri...
