Accumulation of amyloid-beta (Aβ) in the brain is thought to derive from the impairment of Aβ clearance mechanisms rather than from its overproduction, which consequently contributes to the development of Alzheimer’s disease.

Molecular cloning and characterization of B-cadherin, a novel chick cadherin. [PDF]
Calcium-dependent cell-cell adhesion is mediated in large part by a set of homologous integral membrane glycoproteins termed cadherins. In this report, antibodies to conserved domains in previously described cadherins have been used to isolate cDNAs ...

Choroid plexus volume enlargement in first-episode antipsychotic-naïve schizophrenia
Investigation of the choroid plexus in schizophrenia has seen growing interest due to its role in the interaction between neuroinflammation and brain dysfunction. Most previous studies included treated and long-term ill patients, while antipsychotics and

Third ventricle choroid plexus papilloma: 2 cases
The third ventricle is an uncommon location for choroid plexus papillomas. In adults, these tumors most commonly occur in the fourth ventricle. In children, they are more commonly found in the lateral ventricles.

The systemic environment: at the interface of aging and adult neurogenesis. [PDF]
Aging results in impaired neurogenesis in the two neurogenic niches of the adult mammalian brain, the dentate gyrus of the hippocampus and the subventricular zone of the lateral ventricle.

Identification and characterization of FAM124B as a novel component of a CHD7 and CHD8 containing complex [PDF]
BACKGROUND: Mutations in the chromodomain helicase DNA binding protein 7 gene (CHD7) lead to CHARGE syndrome, an autosomal dominant multiple malformation disorder. Proteins involved in chromatin remodeling typically act in multiprotein complexes.

Multicilia dynamically transduce Sonic Hedgehog signaling to regulate choroid plexus functions
Summary: The choroid plexus is a major site for cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) production, characterized by a multiciliated epithelial monolayer that regulates CSF production.

Ion channel function of aquaporin-1 natively expressed in choroid plexus [PDF]
Aquaporins are known as water channels; however, an additional ion channel function has been observed for several including aquaporin-1 (AQP1). Using primary cultures of rat choroid plexus, a brain tissue that secretes CSF and abundantly expresses AQP1 ...

A cellular and spatial map of the choroid plexus across brain ventricles and ages
The choroid plexus (ChP), located in each brain ventricle, produces cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) and forms the blood-CSF barrier, but is under-characterized.
