Our lymphatic system is like a big network of roots spread throughout the body. It serves as part of our immune system, ...

Explore the innovative concept of bioengineered lymph nodes as a promising solution for lymphedema after cancer surgery.

Researchers developed bioengineered lymphatic tissue that replaced missing lymph nodes in mice, with potential to treat lymphedema.

Tumors, such as melanoma, release nanovesicles called exosomes (gray) that travel and lodge in the lymph nodes. There they corrupt the behavior of lymph cells. The lymphatic vessels (green) branch out ...
