Lymphatic Transport

Lymphatic Transport is a biological transport process in which interstitial fluid, macromolecules (including chylomicrons), and immune cells are collected from peripheral tissues and conveyed unidirectionally through the lymphatic vasculature to draining lymph nodes and ultimately back to the venous circulation by means of lymphatic vessel contractility, valvular structures, and tissue-derived pressure gradients.
