In the musculoskeletal system, lymphatic vessels (LVs), which are interdigitated with blood vessels, travel and form an extensive transport network. Blood vessels in bone regulate osteogenesis and hematopoiesis, however, whether LVs in bone affect fracture healing is unclear. Here, we investigate the lymphatic draining function at the tibial fracture sites using near-infrared indocyanine green lymphatic imaging (NIR-ICG) and discover that lymphatic drainage insufficiency (LDI) starts on day one and persists for up to two weeks following the fracture in male mice.

Background: The musculoskeletal system contains an extensive network of lymphatic vessels. Decreased lymph flow of the draining collecting lymphatics usually occurs in clinic after traumatic fractures. However, whether defects in lymphatic drainage can affect fracture healing is unclear.

Adhesive molecular bonds between blood cells are essential for thrombosis and hemostasis as they provide means for platelet adhesion, aggregation, and signaling in flowing blood. According to the nowadays conventional definition, a "catch" bond is a type of non-covalent bio-molecular bridge, whose dissociation lifetime counter-intuitively increases with applied tensile force. Following recent experimental findings, such receptor-ligand protein bonds are vital to the blood cells involved in the prevention of bleeding (hemostatic response) and infection (immunity).

Introduction/aims: Vascular thrombosis is prevalent among patients with polyneuropathy, organomegaly, endocrinopathy M-protein, and skin changes (POEMS) syndrome. The endothelial cells in the endoneurium are often hypertrophied and the lumen is frequently occluded. Consequent local hypoxia may increase vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF), which induces hypercoagulation and vascular permeability.
