This technique could enable wearable devices to boost brain waste clearance in aging adults or patients with neurological conditions.

If the production, circulation or absorption of cerebrospinal fluid is disrupted, it can lead to significant health issues.

Cerebrospinal fluid can sometimes leak or collect in the brain without an identifiable cause, leading to symptoms that can be difficult to diagnose.

Impaired cerebral spinal fluid (CSF) influx, or brain interstitial fluid efflux to the subarachnoid space, is observed in neurodegenerative diseases, including AD and Parkinson’s disease. 13–17 CSF ...

In recent decades, the cerebrospinal fluid, or CSF, in those spaces has drawn a great deal of interest. “Maybe the CSF can be a highway, in a way, for the flow or exchange of different things within ...

A cerebrospinal fluid leak involves the fluid escaping from the spine or a tear in the brain’s protective covering. Read on to learn more.

As mice aged, macrophages in the choroid plexus secreted more cathepsin S, breaking down the blood-CSF barrier. Inhibiting cathepsin S protected the barrier and preserved memory. Senescent cells ...

Putting humans into a state of suspended animation has been a sci-fi aspiration for decades. In Ridley Scott’s iconic film Alien, the crew of the Nostromo emerge from cryo-pods as they approach ...

Investigators concluded that CSF neurofilaments predicted better outcomes than serum neurofilaments in SPMS, with CSF NfH and NfL varying in the ability to predict worsening hand function, information ...
