This study shows that VEGFR2 is essential for maintaining lymphatic endothelial identity and its loss alters transcriptional programs, reducing VEGFR3-mediated lymphangiogenesis.

The paper identifies PIEZO1 overexpression in HHT2 AVMs and shows that inhibiting PIEZO1 reduces AVM formation in Alk1-deficient mice.

This study shows that Yoda1, a Piezo1 agonist, reduces intracranial pressure and improves CSF flow and meningeal lymphatic function in craniosynostosis and aged mice.

This study characterizes the distribution and function of ocular lymphatics in mice and rats, showing nasal-side dominance and suggesting its clinical relevance for glaucoma surgery site selection.
