Quantification of mutant huntingtin protein in cerebrospinal fluid from Huntington's disease patients. [PDF]
Quantification of disease-associated proteins in the cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) has been critical for the study and treatment of several neurodegenerative disorders; however, mutant huntingtin protein (mHTT), the cause of Huntington's disease (HD), is at ...

Cerebrospinal Fluid Rhinorrhea as the First Symptom of Metastatic Prostate Adenocarcinoma
The most common cause of cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) rhinorrhoea is damage to the skull base with a dura mater’s rupture due to an accident or an iatrogenic injury. This applies to over 96% of cases.

New experimental model of acute aqueductal blockage in cats: effects on cerebrospinal fluid pressure and the size of brain ventricles [PDF]
It is generally assumed that cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) is secreted in the brain ventricles, and so after an acute blockage of the aqueduct of Sylvius an increase in the ventricular CSF pressure and dilation of isolated ventricles may be expected. We have

Very Late Presentation of Csf Rhinorrhea after 45 Years of Head Trauma: A Case Report [PDF]
Introduction: Very late presentation of cerebrospinal fluid rhinorrhea is quite rare with some factors like brain shrinkage with age and ethmoidal growth fracture that lead to leakage from fracture site.

BAFF Index and CXCL13 levels in the cerebrospinal fluid associate respectively with intrathecal IgG synthesis and cortical atrophy in multiple sclerosis at clinical onset [PDF]
Background B lymphocytes are thought to play a relevant role in multiple sclerosis (MS) pathology. The in vivo analysis of intrathecally produced B cell-related cytokines may help to clarify the mechanisms of B cell recruitment and ...

Voriconazole treatment of Candida tropicalis meningitis: persistence of (1,3)-b-D-glucan in the cerebrospinal fluid is a marker of clinical and microbiological failure [PDF]
Introduction: Infections are still the most common complications of cerebral shunt procedures. Even though fungal etiologies are considered to be rare, they are associated with significant morbidity and mortality.
