TL;DR: In this paper, a recombinant adenovirus encoding a soluble form of their receptor VEGFR-3 (Ad-VEGFR3-Ig) was used to study lymphatic vessel dependency on vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF)-C but not VEGF-D. The results indicate considerable plasticity of lymphatic vessels during the early postnatal period but not thereafter, suggesting that antilymphangiogenic therapy can be safely applied in adults.
