Journal ArticleDOI

Lymphatic vascular defects promoted by Prox1 haploinsufficiency cause adult-onset obesity

TL;DR: It is found that functional inactivation of a single allele of the homeobox gene Prox1 led to adult-onset obesity due to abnormal lymph leakage from mispatterned and ruptured lymphatic vessels.
Journal ArticleDOI

Lineage tracing demonstrates the venous origin of the mammalian lymphatic vasculature

TL;DR: From venous-derived lymph sacs, lymphatic endothelial cells sprouted, proliferated, and migrated to give rise to the entire lymphatic vasculature, and that hematopoietic cells did not contribute to the developing lymph sacS.
Journal ArticleDOI

The nuclear hormone receptor Coup-TFII is required for the initiation and early maintenance of Prox1 expression in lymphatic endothelial cells

TL;DR: It is demonstrated that the nuclear hormone receptor Coup-TFII is necessary for the activation of Prox1 in embryonic veins by directly binding a conserved DNA domain in the regulatory region ofprox1.
Journal ArticleDOI

Prox1 dosage controls the number of lymphatic endothelial cell progenitors and the formation of the lymphovenous valves

TL;DR: The embryonic lymphovenous valves controlling this vital communication are characterized and it is shown that they are formed by the intercalation of lymphatic endothelial cells (LECs) with a subpopulation of venous endothelial Cells (ECs) at the junction of the jugular and subclavian veins.
