Quantification of the accumulation of DiR-labelled liposomes in the lymphostatic model. (a) Schematic diagram of the procedure used to establish an abdominal lymphedema model by resecting the ALN and ligating the lymphatic vessel toward the ALN. (b) Histological analysis showing development of lymph vessel hyperplasia in the lymphostatic model. (c) Quantification of fluorescent signals derived from DiR-labelled liposomes in the ILN and lymphostasis area.
