Circulation of cerebrospinal fluid and interstitial fluid around the central nervous system and
through the brain transports not only those water-like fluids but also any solutes they carry …

Background Several central nervous system diseases are associated with disturbed
cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) flow patterns and have typically been characterized in vivo by …

The flow of cerebrospinal fluid along perivascular spaces (PVSs) is an important part of the
brain's system for delivering nutrients and eliminating metabolic waste products (such as …

The brain harbors a unique ability to, figuratively speaking, shift its gears. During
wakefulness, the brain is geared fully toward processing information and behaving, while …

Despite its small size, the brain consumes 25% of the body's energy, generating its own
weight in potentially toxic proteins and biological debris each year. The brain is also the only …

Abnormal cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) flow is suspected to be a contributor to the pathogenesis
of neurodegenerative diseases such as Alzheimer's through the accumulation of toxic …

The fine balance between the secretion, composition, volume and turnover of cerebrospinal
fluid (CSF) is strictly regulated. However, during certain neurological diseases, this balance …

We review theoretical and numerical models of the glymphatic system, which circulates
cerebrospinal fluid and interstitial fluid around the brain, facilitating solute transport. Models …

A “glymphatic system,” which involves convective fluid transport from para-arterial to
paravenous cerebrospinal fluid through brain extracellular space (ECS), has been proposed …

Cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) is not stagnant but displays fascinating oscillatory flow patterns
inside the ventricular system and reversing fluid exchange between the cranial vault and …
