A histologic-style illustration of a blind-ended lymphatic capillary within connective tissue. The microvessel is lined by overlapping lymphatic endothelial cells (LECs) forming valve-like openings, tethered by anchoring filaments to the extracellular matrix (ECM). Surrounding parenchymal cells with nuclei border the interstitial space containing interstitial fluid (IF). In the hierarchy, the capillary is a vessel within the lymphatic system of tissues. In anatomy and physiology, it functions to uptake IF and macromolecules for lymph drainage and immune trafficking.
