Lymphocyte targeting of the central nervous system: a review of afferent and efferent CNS‐immune pathways
RO Weller, B Engelhardt, MJ Phillips - Brain pathology, 1996 - Wiley Online Library
The central nervous system (CNS) is considered to be an immunological privileged site.

Meningeal lymphatics: from anatomy to central nervous system immune surveillance
At steady state, the CNS parenchyma has few to no lymphocytes and less potent Ag-
presentation capability compared with other organs. However, the meninges surrounding …

Meningeal lymphatics: an immune gateway for the central nervous system
GA Tavares, A Louveau - Cells, 2021 - mdpi.com
The recent (re) discovery of the meningeal lymphatic system has opened new theories as to
how immune cells traffic and interact with the central nervous system (CNS). While evidence …

CNS lymphatic drainage and neuroinflammation are regulated by meningeal lymphatic vasculature
Neuroinflammatory diseases, such as multiple sclerosis, are characterized by invasion of the
brain by autoreactive T cells. The mechanism for how T cells acquire their encephalitogenic …

Neuroinflammation creates an immune regulatory niche at the meningeal lymphatic vasculature near the cribriform plate
Meningeal lymphatics near the cribriform plate undergo lymphangiogenesis during
neuroinflammation to drain excess fluid. Here, we hypothesized that lymphangiogenic …

CNS: Not an immunoprivilaged site anymore but a virtual secondary lymphoid organ
N Negi, BK Das - International reviews of immunology, 2018 - Taylor & Francis
The cardinal dogma of central nervous system (CNS) immunology believed brain is an
immune privileged site, but scientific evidences gathered so far have overturned this notion …

Revisiting the mechanisms of CNS immune privilege
Whereas the study of the interactions between the immune system and the central nervous
system (CNS) has often focused on pathological conditions, the importance of neuroimmune …

Neuroinflammation-induced lymphangiogenesis near the cribriform plate contributes to drainage of CNS-derived antigens and immune cells
There are no conventional lymphatic vessels within the CNS parenchyma, although it has
been hypothesized that lymphatics near the cribriform plate or dura maintain fluid …
