Lymphangiogenesis Impact Factor

Lymphongiogenesis  is a generation of lymph vessels from pre-existing lymph vessels, which plays a major role in homeostasis, metabolism, and immunity. Many lymph vessel-related diseases such as neoplasm metastasis, oedema, rheumatoid arthritis, psoriasis, lymphangiomatosis, and impaired wound healing. Lymphangiogenesis is the development of lymphatic vessels from pre-existing lymphatic vessels in a process that is considered to be angiogenesis-like. Lymphangiogenesis plays a major role in homeostasis, metabolism, and immunity. Journal impact factor provides a quantitative evaluation tool for the grading, evaluation, sorting, and comparison of similar journals. It reflects the average number of citations to recent articles published in science and social science journals in a given year or period, and is often used as a proxy for a journal's relative importance within its field. Lymph vessels are passive participants in tumor metastasis by providing channels for transiting tumor cells and to draining lymph nodes. However, the discovery of several key lymph-specific molecular markers and the increased availability of experimental systems in vitro and in vivo for studying lymph biology have highlighted a much more complex, active role for lymph vasculature in metastatic tumor spread.
