Deep in the brain, sheets of tissue known as the choroid plexus produce cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) and act as a protective barrier between the brain and CSF. But the lab of Maria Lehtinen, Ph.D., at ...

The choroid plexus, which makes up the blood-cerebrospinal fluid barrier in the central nervous system (CNS), lines the ventricles, produces cerebrospinal fluid, and protects the brain via a physical ...

Protective borders between the brain and the blood weaken with age. This includes the barrier formed by tightly linked epithelial cells in the choroid plexus, which generates cerebrospinal fluid. In ...

A longitudinal, observational study found that the choroid plexus, a network of blood vessels in each ventricle of the brain, plays a potential role in the neurodegenerative and chronic inflammatory ...

VIB and Ghent University researchers have identified and characterized a previously unknown cellular barrier in the brain, which sheds new light on how the brain is protected from the rest of the body ...

Research found the choroid plexus and cerebrospinal fluid play a key role in maintaining a pool of newly born neurons to repair the adult brain after injury. University of Cincinnati researchers have ...

Zic family member 4 (ZIC4) is a tumor suppressive transcription factor that is epigenetically silenced in many types of cancers. In the current study, researchers from Children's Cancer Hospital Egypt ...

Scientists found the choroid plexus and cerebrospinal fluid play a key role in maintaining a pool of newly born neurons to repair the adult brain after injury. University of Cincinnati researchers ...

University of Cincinnati researchers have pioneered an animal model that sheds light on the role an understudied organ in the brain has in repairing damage caused by stroke. The research was published ...
