Glymphatic System Dysfunction in Central Nervous System Diseases and Mood Disorders

open access: yesFrontiers in Aging Neuroscience, 2022
The glymphatic system, a recently discovered macroscopic waste removal system in the brain, has many unknown aspects, especially its driving forces and relationship with sleep, and thus further explorations of the relationship between the glymphatic ...

The Glymphatic System (En)during Inflammation [PDF]

open access: yesInternational Journal of Molecular Sciences, 2021
The glymphatic system is a fluid-transport system that accesses all regions of the brain. It facilitates the exchange of cerebrospinal fluid and interstitial fluid and clears waste from the metabolically active brain. Astrocytic endfeet and their dense expression of the aquaporin-4 water channels promote fluid exchange between the perivascular spaces ...

The Glymphatic System and Pain [PDF]

open access: yesMedical Acupuncture, 2020
The glymphatic system is network of perivascular spaces through which cerebrospinal fluid and interstitial fluid can move through the brain, clearing metabolic waste, such as amyloid beta, lactate and more, from the parenchyma. This cleaning system is regulated by sleep and norepinephrine, with increased levels of norepinephrine during wakefulness ...

Dysfunction of the Glymphatic System as a Potential Mechanism of Perioperative Neurocognitive Disorders

open access: yesFrontiers in Aging Neuroscience, 2021
Perioperative neurocognitive disorder (PND) frequently occurs in the elderly as a severe postoperative complication and is characterized by a decline in cognitive function that impairs memory, attention, and other cognitive domains.

The Brain’s Glymphatic System: Current Controversies [PDF]

open access: yesTrends in Neurosciences, 2020
The glymphatic concept along with the discovery of meningeal lymphatic vessels have, in recent years, highlighted that fluid is directionally transported within the central nervous system (CNS). Imaging studies, as well as manipulations of fluid transport, point to a key role of the glymphatic-lymphatic system in clearance of amyloid-β and other ...

The glymphatic system: Current understanding and modeling [PDF]

open access: yesiScience, 2022
We review theoretical and numerical models of the glymphatic system, which circulates cerebrospinal fluid and interstitial fluid around the brain, facilitating solute transport. Models enable hypothesis development and predictions of transport, with clinical applications including drug delivery, stroke, cardiac arrest, and neurodegenerative disorders ...

Peristaltic flow in the glymphatic system [PDF]

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2020
AbstractThe flow inside the perivascular space (PVS) is modeled using a first-principles approach in order to investigate how the cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) enters the brain through a permeable layer of glial cells. Lubrication theory is employed to deal with the flow in the thin annular gap of the perivascular space between an impermeable artery and ...
