J Exp Med. 2018 Nov 5;215(11):2699-2701. doi: 10.1084/jem.20181898. Epub 2018 Oct 24.

Abstract

In this issue, Bovay et al. (https://doi.org/10.1084/jem.20180217) invoke a compelling model of interplay between the venous and lymphatic vasculature in regulating the developmental genesis and early expansion of LNs. This work supports an emerging model that lymph-venous crosstalk supports LN functionality at all stages.
