Development and aging of the lymphatic vascular system
Open accessAbstract
The lymphatic vasculature has a pivotal role in regulating body fluid homeostasis, immune surveillance and dietary fat absorption. The increasing number of in vitro and in vivo studies in the last decades has shed light on the processes of lymphatic vascular development and function. Here, we will discuss the current progress in lymphatic vascular biology such as the mechanisms of lymphangiogenesis, lymphatic vascular maturation and maintenance and the emerging mechanisms of lymphatic vascular aging.

Valve defects are associated with deficiencies or mutations in many different LEC molecules, and defective lymphatic valves underlie many forms of primary lymphedema.
“Valve defects are associated with deficiencies or mutations in many different LEC molecules, and defective lymphatic valves underlie many forms of primary lymphedema (see 37, table 1).”
From Transport and Immune Functions of the Lymphatic System. (2025) · cites this paper as [37]
Section 3.3 (page unavailable) says that many genes regulating lymphatic valve development are associated with lymphatic vascular defects in humans, and identifies FOXC2 and GATA2 mutations in lymphedema syndromes. This supports the link between valve-related molecules and disease, but the cited passages do not establish that defective valves themselves underlie many forms of primary lymphedema. (LLM, conf=0.82)
Experimental — accuracy not yet measuredMurine valves begin to develop around day E16.5 and share a similar developmental program with venous valves, in which valve cells become enriched in Prox1, Gata2, Foxc2, Nfatc1, Cldn11, and laminin α5.

Section 3.3 describes mouse collecting-vessel formation beginning around E15.5 and identifies PROX1-high, FOXC2-high valve-forming cells, high GATA2 expression in valve cells, and NFAT signalling in valve development. It does not establish that valves begin developing at E16.5, compare their developmental program with venous valves, or identify Cldn11 and laminin α5 as enriched valve-cell markers. Page numbers were unavailable in our copy. (LLM, conf=0.85)
Experimental — accuracy not yet measuredLymphedema can result from genetic mutations in critical genes controlling lymphatic vessel or valve development, surgical disruption of lymphatic networks, and/or impaired pumping of collecting lymphatic vessels.
“Lymphedema is the accumulation of excess interstitial fluid as a result of lymphatic dysfunction, and can result from genetic mutations in critical genes controlling lymphatic vessel or valve development (37), surgical disruption of lymphatic networks (131), and/or impaired pumping of collecting lymphatic vessels (49, 57).”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
