Do ephrinB2-EphB4 signals regulate formation and maintenance of funnel-shaped valves in corneal lymphatic capillaries?
The results demonstrate a pivotal role of ephrinB2-EphB4 signals in the formation and maintenance of funnel-shaped valves in corneal lymphatic capillaries, and further suggest the potential of ephrinB2-EphB4 signals as a target to therapeutically manipulate corneal lymphangiogenesis.
aPAF antibodies may reflect early vascular changes and thus serve as novel markers for disease, and they may also be pathogenic, by eliciting an inflammatory reaction in the vascular wall.
