| Research Abstract |
We investigated some proteins which play an important role in the immune system to clarify immune mechanisms via intraoral and extraoral lymphatic vessels. We showed that intraoral lymphatic vessels may differently play site-specific roles in immune systems, and extraoral lymphatic vessels have intracellular networks through these proteins. We discovered that systemic lymphatic vessels contribute to not only substance transport, but also immune mechanisms.
