Mouse Lymphatic Endothelial Cells (MLECs) are primary cells isolated from healthy murine lymphatic tissues. These cells exhibit a cobblestone-like or oak-leaf morphology and display adherent growth properties. These cells retain key physiological functions including maintaining fluid and protein homeostasis, regulating immune responses, and facilitating lymphocyte recirculation. They are involved in various pathological processes like lymphedema, lymphangitis, and tumor metastasis, largely due to their role in lymphatic remodeling and immune modulation. MLECs express lymphatic-specific markers, including CD31 and LYVE-1. As primary cells, MLECs have limited proliferative capacity (typically ≤5 passages) and require optimized culture conditions to preserve functionality.

MLECs are widely employed in studies of lymphatic vessel biology under both physiological and pathological conditions. These cells serve as a critical in vitro model for investigating lymphangiogenesis, immune cell trafficking, and molecular transport mechanisms, particularly in cancer metastasis and chronic inflammatory disorders like lymphedema. Researchers employ MLECs to model tumor-induced lymphatic remodeling, to screen anti-metastatic drugs targeting VEGF-C/VEGFR-3 signaling, and to assess endothelial permeability in infection or autoimmune settings.
