Supplementary Movie S4
Dermal lymphatic vessel contraction is associated with SMCs coverage (Control). A control mouse was anaesthetized and the ear was subcutaneously injected with Tritc Dextran, followed by time-lapse imaging for 5 minutes utilizing a Leica M205FA microscope with a PLANAPO 1.0x objective. A contraction site on the lymphatic vessel is indicated by the arrow. Scale bar, 200 μm.
Smooth muscle cell recruitment to lymphatic vessels requires PDGFB and impacts vessel size but not identity
