Ependymal alterations in sudden intrauterine unexplained death and sudden infant death syndrome: possible primary consequence of prenatal exposure to cigarette smoking [PDF]

Neural Development, 2010
Background The ependyma, the lining providing a protective barrier and filtration system separating brain parenchyma from cerebrospinal fluid, is still inadequately understood in humans.

Correlated electrophysiology and morphology of the ependyma in rat hypothalamus [PDF]

The Journal of Neuroscience, 1988
The ependyma lines the ventricular system of the vertebrate brain and spinal cord. Although its embryology and morphology have been studied extensively, little is known of its physiological properties, particularly in mammals. Tanycytes are modified ependymal cells that are found predominantly lining the floor of the third ventricle, overlying the ...

Structural defects in cilia of the choroid plexus, subfornical organ and ventricular ependyma are associated with ventriculomegaly [PDF]

Fluids and Barriers of the CNS, 2012
Background Hydrocephalus is a heterogeneous disorder with multiple etiologies that are not yet fully understood. Animal models have implicated dysfunctional cilia of the ependyma and choroid plexus in the development of the disorder.

RNA Profiling of Mouse Ependymal Cells after Spinal Cord Injury Identifies the Oncostatin Pathway as a Potential Key Regulator of Spinal Cord Stem Cell Fate

Cells, 2021
Ependymal cells reside in the adult spinal cord and display stem cell properties in vitro. They proliferate after spinal cord injury and produce neurons in lower vertebrates but predominantly astrocytes in mammals.

Cellular Distribution of Brain Aquaporins and Their Contribution to Cerebrospinal Fluid Homeostasis and Hydrocephalus

Biomolecules, 2022
Brain aquaporins facilitate the movement of water between the four water compartments: blood, cerebrospinal fluid, interstitial fluid, and intracellular fluid.

Hydrogen peroxide at a concentration used during neurosurgery disrupts ciliary function and causes extensive damage to the ciliated ependyma of the brain

, 2009
Objectives Hydrogen peroxide [H2O2: 3% w/v (1.1 M)] has been used as a haemostatic agent during neurosurgery applied to both the external and ventricular surface of the brain.

Cerebrospinal Fluid Drop Metastases of Canine Glioma: Magnetic Resonance Imaging Classification

Frontiers in Veterinary Science, 2021
Dissemination of glioma in humans can occur as leptomeningeal nodules, diffuse leptomeningeal lesions, or ependymal lesions. Cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) drop metastasis of glioma is not well-recognized in dogs.

Adherens, tight, and gap junctions in ependymal cells: A systematic review of their contribution to CSF-brain barrier

Frontiers in Neurology, 2023
IntroductionThe movement of fluids and solutes across the ependymal barrier, and their changes in physiologic and disease states are poorly understood.

Single Cell Transcriptomics of Ependymal Cells Across Age, Region and Species Reveals Cilia-Related and Metal Ion Regulatory Roles as Major Conserved Ependymal Cell Functions

Frontiers in Cellular Neuroscience, 2021
Ependymal cells are ciliated-epithelial glial cells that develop from radial glia along the surface of the ventricles of the brain and the spinal canal.
