Aim The aims of this prospective study were (a) to examine the relationship between pre-operative muscle lymph flow and the predisposition to BCRL in women treated by axillary nodal surgery for breast cancer; and (b) to test the ‘stopcock' hypothes

Hyaluronan (HA) is central to joint function, contributing to synovial fluid retention, lubrication, matrix organisation and joint embryogenesis. HA synthesis by intimal synoviocytes is stimulated by stretch (SSHA), linking HA production to joint usa

Synovial fluid hyaluronan (HA) profoundly buffers fluid loss from joints. This is attributed to the osmotic pressure of HA reflected by the joint lining. The aims were to quantify HA sieving during fluid drainage from joint to lymphatics and to compa

Aims: Synovium retains lubricating fluid in the joint cavity. Synovial outflow resistance estimated as dP j /dQ s (P j , joint fluid pressure and Q s trans-synovial flow) is greater, however, than expected from interstitial glycosaminoglycan concentr

Because fibroblast filamentous actin (F-actin) influences cutaneous interstitial matrix swelling pressure (5), we investigated whether F-actin in fibroblast-derived synoviocytes influences the hydraulic permeability of the trans-synovial interstitial

Background Approximately 25% of breast cancer patients who undergo treatment to the axilla develop breast cancer-related lymphoedema (BCRL). The aim of this study was to test the hypothesis that lymphovenous communications (LVCs) open and act as a pr

The hypothesis has been advanced that synovium offers the main resistance to fluid escape from joints, even though it is under 20 microm thick. To test this, fluid was infused into the knee joint cavity of anaesthetised rabbits to set up a pressure g

Fibroblast microfilamentous actin (F-actin) influences interstitial fluid pressure via linkages to collagen in rat skin (Berg et al., 2001). The present aims were to determine whether the actin cytoskeleton of synovial endothelium, fibroblasts, and s

Background Elongated and tortuous capillary loops are distinctive features of psoriasis. The significance of these microvascular changes in the pathogenesis of plaques, however, remains unclear. Objectives To determine what part the expanded superfic

Postmastectomy oedema (PMO) of the arm is a common aftermath of axillary lymphatic damage during treatment for breast cancer. The aim of the present study was to quantify the forearm dermal lymphatic capillaries in order to determine whether they exh
