The choroid plexus (CP) is a structure in the brain ventricles that produces the main part of
the cerebrospinal fluid (CSF). It is covered with specialized cells which show epithelial …

The choroid plexus (CP) consists of specialized ependymal cells and underlying blood
vessels and stroma producing the bulk of the cerebrospinal fluid (CSF). CP epithelial cells …

The cells of the choroid plexus (CP) epithelium are specialized ependymal cells (ECs) but
have distinct properties. The CP cells and ECs form single‐cell sheets contiguous to each …

Aquaporins are selective water channel proteins that play a central role in the homeostasis
of human body water. The choroid plexus (CP) is considered to be the main cerebrospinal …

Expression of the water channel aquaporin‐4 (AQP4) at the blood–brain interface is
dependent upon the dystrophin associated protein complex. Here we investigated whether …

Astrocytes show an enrichment of aquaporin-4 (AQP4) in those parts of the plasma
membrane that are apposed to pial or perivascular basal laminae. This observation begged …

Background: Aquaporins (AQPs) are water channels that play a key role in water transport in
many epithelia. Recent studies have shown that AQP1, located in the apical membrane of …

The role of aquaporins in cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) secretion was investigated in this study.
Western analysis and immunocytochemistry were used to examine the expression of …

Abstract Aquaporin-4 (AQP4) water channels are concentrated in astrocytic endfoot
membranes at the brain–blood and brain–cerebrospinal fluid interfaces. The mechanisms …
