Anatomy of spinal CSF loss in the American alligator (Alligator mississippiensis)

Journal of Anatomy, Volume 246, Issue 4, Page 575-584, April 2025.
India ink introduced into the cranial cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) compartment of Alligator diffuses along the spinal cord and exits the spinal compartment using perineural flow, resulting in a prominent “ink cuff” forming at the base of the spinal nerve. In Alligator, the region of the ink cuff is drained by a small lymphatic vessel.

Meningeal T cells function in the central nervous system homeostasis and neurodegenerative diseases

Frontiers in Cellular Neuroscience, 2023
Recently, a rising interest is given to neuroimmune communication in physiological and neuropathological conditions. Meningeal immunity is a complex immune environment housing different types of immune cells. Here, we focus on meningeal T cells, possibly

Women in space: A review of known physiological adaptations and health perspectives

Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Exposure to the spaceflight environment causes adaptations in most human physiological systems, many of which are thought to affect women differently from men. Since only 11.5% of astronauts worldwide have been female, these issues are largely understudied.

Coupling between global brain blood oxygen level‐dependent activity and cerebrospinal fluid dynamics in young endurance athletes

Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) contributes to brain waste clearance through its coupling with cerebral haemodynamics. Aerobic exercise promotes brain health, but its influence on brain waste clearance remains unclear. This study examined the coupling between CSF and cerebral haemodynamics in endurance athletes. Fifteen young male endurance athletes

Meningeal lymphatic drainage promotes T cell responses against Toxoplasma gondii but is dispensable for parasite control in the brain

eLife, 2022
The discovery of meningeal lymphatic vessels that drain the CNS has prompted new insights into how immune responses develop in the brain. In this study, we examined how T cell responses against CNS-derived antigen develop in the context of infection.

Transfer of paracetamol across the placenta and fetal blood–brain barriers and its safety for use in pregnancy

The Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend Paracetamol (acetaminophen) is commonly taken during pregnancy for pain and fever. To gain a more comprehensive understanding of paracetamol's effects during pregnancy, several elements need to be examined including the transfer of paracetamol across the placenta and into the developing brain, the short‐ and long‐term effects of ...

Glymphatic Dysfunction in Children With Type 2 and 3 Spinal Muscular Atrophy

CNS Neuroscience &Therapeutics, Volume 32, Issue 8, August 2026.
This study reveals glymphatic dysfunction in children with spinal muscular atrophy (SMA), characterized by increased cerebrospinal fluid volume and reduced ALPS index. These alterations correlate with clinical severity, identifying glymphatic dysfunction as a previously unrecognized feature of SMA pathophysiology.

Lymphatic Drainage of Cerebrospinal Fluid Using Lymph Node Seeker 64Cu‐Labeled Gram‐Negative Bacterial Extracellular Vesicles With Positron Emission Tomography (PET)

Journal of Extracellular Vesicles, Volume 15, Issue 8, August 2026.
ABSTRACT Cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) is drained into the systemic lymphatics via paravertebral lymph nodes. Superficial and deep cervical lymph nodes collect CSF in mice, but the exact and quantified routes are unknown. Recently, we simultaneously visualized cervical, sacral and iliac lymph nodes via serial imaging on the intrathecal [64Cu]Cu‐albumin ...

Lymphatic Endothelial Cells in Health and Disease

MedComm, Volume 7, Issue 8, August 2026.
Lymphatic endothelial cells (LECs) are dynamic regulators of tissue homeostasis and disease remodeling. In the healthy state, LECs coordinate interstitial fluid drainage, intestinal lipid transport, and immune trafficking and tolerance. Across disease settings, however, these same programs become maladaptively reprogrammed, contributing to barrier ...

Morphology of the glymphatic and meningeal lymphatic structures of the bottlenose dolphin

Scientific Reports
In humans and mice, the glymphatic system, critical for central nervous system (CNS) health, relies on cardiorespiratory coupling, but has not yet been investigated in a diving mammal that routinely experiences apnea, bradycardia, and peripheral ...
