The glymphatic system is a fluid-transport system that accesses all regions of the brain. It
facilitates the exchange of cerebrospinal fluid and interstitial fluid and clears waste from the …

The functions of the glymphatic system include clearance of the metabolic waste and
modulation of the water transport in the brain, and it forms a brain-wide fluid network along …

The glymphatic system is a brain-wide perivascular pathway driven by aquaporin-4 on the
endfeet of astrocytes, which can deliver nutrients and active substances to the brain …

The central nervous system (CNS) is unique in being the only organ system lacking
lymphatic vessels to assist in the removal of interstitial metabolic waste products. Recent …

The complex and dynamic system of fluid flow through the perivascular and interstitial
spaces of the CNS has new-found implications for neurological diseases. CSF movement …

Throughout the body, lymphatic fluid movement supports critical functions including
clearance of excess fluid and metabolic waste. The glymphatic system is the analog of the …

Recent discoveries of the glymphatic system and of meningeal lymphatic vessels have
generated a lot of excitement, along with some degree of skepticism. Here, we summarize …

The glymphatic system (GS) is a novel defined brain-wide perivascular transit network
between cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) and interstitial solutes that facilitates the clearance of …

A genuine and functional lymphatic vascular system is found in the meninges that sheath the
central nervous system (CNS). This unexpected (re) discovery led to a reevaluation of CNS …

The classic concept of the absence of lymphatic vessels in the central nervous system
(CNS), suggesting the immune privilege of the brain in spite of its high metabolic rate, was …
