Tumor lymphangiogenesis, which involves both the activation and growth induction of surrounding lymphatic vessels, is well-known to correlate with tumor progression and metastasis in many solid tumors. While it is typically assumed that lymphangiogenesis supports an ‘escape route’ for cells to leave the primary tumor, the tumor-draining lymph node serves as the key site of […]
