Astrocytic Ion Dynamics: Implications for Potassium Buffering and Liquid Flow [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
We review modeling of astrocyte ion dynamics with a specific focus on the implications of so-called spatial potassium buffering, where excess potassium in the extracellular space (ECS) is transported away to prevent pathological neural spiking.

The neurovascular unit as a selective barrier to polymorphonuclear granulocyte (PMN) infiltration into the brain after ischemic injury [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
The migration of polymorphonuclear granulocytes (PMN) into the brain parenchyma and release of their abundant proteases are considered the main causes of neuronal cell death and reperfusion injury following ischemia.

Peripheral accumulation of newly produced T and B lymphocytes in natalizumab-treated multiple sclerosis patients [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
The anti-α4 monoclonal antibody natalizumab inhibits lymphocyte extravasation into the central nervous system and increases peripheral T and B lymphocytes in multiple sclerosis patients.

Foxc1 is required by pericytes during fetal brain angiogenesis [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Summary Brain pericytes play a critical role in blood vessel stability and blood–brain barrier maturation. Despite this, how brain pericytes function in these different capacities is only beginning to be understood.

Analysis of norepinephrine-regulated cerebral lymphatic drainage by the second near-infrared region in vivo imaging

open access: yesAPL Photonics
The cerebral lymphatic drainage plays an important role in the occurrence and development of central nervous system diseases. Recent studies have shown that cerebral lymphatic drainage is regulated by circadian rhythm and anesthesia state; however, the ...

The multiple faces of leukocyte interstitial migration

open access: yes, 2014
Spatiotemporal control of leukocyte dynamics within tissues is critical for successful innate and adaptive immune responses. Homeostatic trafficking and coordinated infiltration into and within sites of inflammation and infection rely on signaling in ...

dab2 is required for the scavenging function of lymphatic endothelial cells in the zebrafish meninges

open access: yesScientific Reports
To date it is only partially understood how the brain is cleared of waste products resulting from its high metabolic activity, although this process has important implications for the development and progression of neurodegenerative diseases.

Complex Non-sinus-associated Pachymeningeal Lymphatic Structures: Interrelationship With Blood Microvasculature

open access: yesFrontiers in Physiology, 2019
The contribution of cranial dura mater vascular networks, as means for maintaining brain fluid movement and balance, and as the source of significant initiators and/or contributors to neurological disorders, has been overlooked. These networks consist of

Therapeutic approaches to CNS diseases via the meningeal lymphatic and glymphatic system: prospects and challenges

open access: yesFrontiers in Cell and Developmental Biology
The brain has traditionally been considered an “immune-privileged” organ lacking a lymphatic system. However, recent studies have challenged this view by identifying the presence of the glymphatic system and meningeal lymphatic vessels (MLVs).
