Lymphangiogenesis is the formation of new lymphatic vessels. This process can be triggered by inflammation. HMGB1 can be an inflammatory factor released by cancer cells, immune cells, and damaged/necrotic cells. HMGB1 can bind to TLR4 to generate pro-lymphangiogensis cytokines (like VEGF), increase sensitivity to these factors, and can cause the release of chemokines that draw in CD11b+ cells. These infiltrating cells can then become Lymphatic Endothelial Cell (LEC) progenitors. Together, these factors can promote inflammation-induced lymphangiogenesis and metastasis of cancerous cells. As such, the study of the various components of this mechanism are extremely important, and BioLegend provides a diverse range of reagents for the studies of these individual components. |
