The Glymphatic System: a Potential Key Player in Bacterial Meningitis
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 ...

Influencing factors of glymphatic system during perioperative period
Frontiers in NeuroscienceThe glymphatic system is a functional cerebrospinal fluid circulatory system that uses peri-arterial space for inflow of cerebrospinal fluid and peri-venous space for efflux of cerebrospinal fluid from brain parenchyma.

The glymphatic system and subarachnoid hemorrhage: disruption and recovery
Exploration of Neuroprotective Therapy, 2022 The glymphatic system, or glial-lymphatic system, is a waste clearance system composed of perivascular channels formed by astrocytes that mediate the clearance of proteins and metabolites from the brain.

Investigating cerebral oedema using poroelasticity [PDF]
, 2015 Cerebral oedema can be classified as the tangible swelling produced by expansion of the interstitial fluid volume. Hydrocephalus can be succinctly described as the abnormal accumulation of cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) within the brain which ultimately leads

Can meditation-based approaches improve the cleansing power of the glymphatic system?
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 choroid plexus in health and in disease: dialogues into and out of the brain [PDF]
, 2017 This article brings the choroid plexus into the context of health and disease. It is remarkable that the choroid plexus, composed by a monolayer of epithelial cells that lie in a highly vascularized stroma, floating within the brain ventricles, gets so ...

A clinical primer for the glymphatic system
Brain, 2021 Abstract The complex and dynamic system of fluid flow through the perivascular and interstitial spaces of the CNS has new-found implications for neurological diseases. CSF movement throughout the CNS parenchyma is more dynamic than could be explained via passive diffusion mechanisms alone.
