Research on the Glial–Lymphatic System and Its Relationship With Alzheimer’s Disease
Frontiers in Neuroscience, 2021 Metabolic waste clearance is essential to maintain body homeostasis, in which the lymphatic system plays a vital role. Conversely, in recent years, studies have identified the glial–lymphatic system in the brain, which primarily comprises the inflow of ...

Is There a Cerebral Lymphatic System? [PDF]
Stroke, 2013 The brain is unique among virtually all somatic organs in its lack of a conventional lymphatic vasculature.1–3 In the periphery, the lymphatic circulation facilitates the clearance of extracellular proteins and excess fluid from the interstitium, a role critical to tissue homeostasis and function.4,5 Yet within the brain, despite its complex ...
