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 ...

Continuous Theta-Burst Stimulation Promotes Paravascular CSF-Interstitial Fluid Exchange through Regulation of Aquaporin-4 Polarization in APP/PS1 Mice

open access: yesMediators of Inflammation, 2022
Amyloid-β (Aβ) deposition plays a crucial role in the occurrence and development of Alzheimer’s disease (AD), and impaired Aβ clearance is the leading cause of Aβ deposition.

Mapping the Glymphatic Pathway Using Imaging Advances

open access: yesJ, 2023
The glymphatic system is a newly discovered waste-clearing system that is analogous to the lymphatic system in our central nervous system. Furthermore, disruption in the glymphatic system has also been associated with many neurodegenerative disorders (e ...

What Is the “Glymphatic System”?

open access: yesMagnetic Resonance in Medical Sciences, 2023
Although the glymphatic system hypothesis is highly popular, it also lacks certain details. In this paper, an attempt was made to present a more clearly defined hypothesis, which is consistent with the past experiment results. The new hypothesis consists of (1) water flux in the brain parenchyma, (2) water and solutes pathway of the perivascular space,

Sleep and the Glymphatic System - A Systematic Review

open access: yes, 2021
This study aims to review and summarize the dynamic relationship between sleep and the glymphatic system. Specifically, we will examine the association between sleep and the glymphatic system in samples of typically developing individuals and those ...

MRI-Based Demonstration of the Normal Glymphatic System in a Human Population: A Systematic Review

open access: yesFrontiers in Neurology, 2022
BackgroundThe glymphatic system has been described as one that facilitates the exchange between the cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) and interstitial fluid, and many recent studies have demonstrated glymphatic flow based on magnetic resonance imaging (MRI).

The glymphatic system:A novel component of fundamental neurobiology

open access: yes, 2021
Throughout the body, lymphatic fluid movement supports critical functions including clearance of excess fluid and metabolic waste. The glymphatic system is the analog of the lymphatic system in the CNS.

The Role of Glymphatic System in Alzheimer’s and Parkinson’s Disease Pathogenesis

open access: yesBiomedicines, 2022
Alzheimer’s disease (AD) is the most common cause of neurodegenerative dementia, whilst Parkinson’s disease (PD) is a neurodegenerative movement disorder.

Altered Glymphatic System in Middle-Aged cART-Treated Patients With HIV: A Diffusion Tensor Imaging Study

open access: yesFrontiers 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 ...

The glymphatic system in Huntington's disease. [PDF]

open access: yesJ Huntingtons Dis
The glymphatic system, a macroscopic waste clearance network in the brain, plays a vital role in maintaining neuronal health and brain homeostasis. Functionally analogous to the lymphatic system in other organs, the term “glymphatic” combines “glial” and “lymphatic.” This system facilitates the exchange of cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) and interstitial ...
