On-Chip Engineered Human Lymphatic Microvasculature for Physio-/Pathological Transport Phenomena Studies
In addition to the blood vasculature, the majority of tissues contain a secondary vascular system known as the lymphatics that supports tissue homeostasis and immune cell trafficking. As such, impairment of the lymphatic capillaries can result in diverse diseases including abnormal tissue swelling (...
