Glymphatic system: a gateway for neuroinflammation
Neural Regeneration Research, 2023 The glymphatic system is a relatively recently identified fluid exchange and transport system in the brain. Accumulating evidence indicates that glymphatic function is impaired not only in central nervous system disorders but also in systemic diseases ...

Dilated Virchow-Robin spaces in primary open-angle glaucoma : a biomarker of glymphatic waste clearance dysfunction? [PDF]
, 2016 The lymphatic clearance pathways of the brain are different compared to the other organs of the body and have been the subject of heated debates. Drainage of brain extracellular fluids, particularly interstitial fluid (ISF) and cerebrospinal fluid (CSF),

The Sleeping Brain: Harnessing the Power of the Glymphatic System through Lifestyle Choices [PDF]
Brain Sciences, 2020 The glymphatic system is a “pseudo-lymphatic” perivascular network distributed throughout the brain, responsible for replenishing as well as cleansing the brain.

The role of glymphatic system in neurological diseases - literature review [PDF]
Journal of Education, Health and Sport, 2023 Introduction: The glymphatic system is the equivalent of the lymphatic system in the brain. This system is responsible for the exchange of metabolism waste products between the cerebrospinal fluid and the interstitial fluid.

Altered Glymphatic System in Middle-Aged cART-Treated Patients With HIV: A Diffusion Tensor Imaging Study [PDF]
Frontiers in Neurology, 2022 Objective:The brain relies on the glymphatic system to clear metabolic wastes and maintain brain homeostasis to fulfill its functions better. Yet, the complexity of the glymphatic flow and clearance and its changes in HIV infection and its role in ...

Can meditation-based approaches improve the cleansing power of the glymphatic system? [PDF]
Exploration of Neuroprotective Therapy, 2022 The glymphatic system, first described in 2012, is a brain-wide perivascular network that plays an important role in promoting interstitial metabolic waste removal from the brain.

The Glymphatic System: a Potential Key Player in Bacterial Meningitis [PDF]
mBio, 2022 The glial-lymphatic system (glymphatic system) is a recently characterized fluid clearance pathway of the central nervous system. Glymphatic system disfunctions leading to defects in drainage of the cerebrospinal fluid have been associated with several ...

Glymphatic system: a self-purification circulation in brain [PDF]
Frontiers in Cellular NeuroscienceThe glymphatic system theory introduces a new perspective on fluid flow and homeostasis in the brain. Here, cerebrospinal fluid and interstitial fluid (CSF-ISF) moves from the perivascular spaces (PVS) of arteries to those of veins for drainage ...

Glymphatic system: an emerging therapeutic approach for neurological disorders [PDF]
Frontiers in Molecular Neuroscience, 2023 The functions of the glymphatic system include clearance of the metabolic waste and modulation of the water transport in the brain, and it forms a brain-wide fluid network along with cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) and interstitial fluid (ISF).
