Modeling flow in embryonic lymphatic vasculature: what is its role in valve development?
A majority of lymphatic valves tend to form in proximity to vessel junctions, and it is often proposed that disturbed flow at junctions creates oscillating shear stress that leads to accumulation of transcription factors which bring about valvogenesis at these sites. In images of networks of dorsal...
