January 2024 in “Signal transduction and targeted therapy” This study presents a detailed overview of lymphatic vessel development and highlights the role of abnormal lymphangiogenesis in various diseases, suggesting that targeting lymphangiogenic factors may improve treatment strategies.
September 2020 in “Faculty Opinions – Post-Publication Peer Review of the Biomedical Literature” This study found that lymphatic vessels play a crucial role in hair follicle growth and regeneration in mice by connecting hair follicles and expanding during stem cell activation.
