In this study, we uncover lymphatic vessel structural features of captured populations and injury-induced genetic changes. We further determine that lymphatic endothelial cell gene expression is altered between injury models. How lymphatic endothelial cells respond to AKI may therefore be key in regulating future kidney disease progression.
