The cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) has attracted renewed interest as an active signaling milieu
that regulates brain development, homeostasis, and disease. Advances in proteomics …

Several barriers separate the central nervous system (CNS) from the rest of the body. These
barriers are essential for regulating the movement of fluid, ions, molecules, and immune …

Cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) is a body fluid of choice for biomarker studies of brain disorders
but remains relatively under-studied compared with other biological fluids such as plasma …

Background In order to better understand the effects of social stress on the prefrontal cortex,
we investigated gene expression in mice subjected to acute and repeated social encounters …

While the impact of hemorrhagic and ischemic strokes on the blood–brain barrier has been
extensively studied, the impact of these types of stroke on the choroid plexus, site of the …

The meninges and choroid plexus perform many functions in the developing and adult
human central nervous system (CNS) and are composed of a number of different cell types …

Background Simultaneous consideration of two neuropathological traits related to
Alzheimer's disease (AD) has not been attempted in a genome-wide association study …

Abstract Endocannabinoids [2-arachidonoylglycerol (2-AG) and N-
arachidonoylethanolamine (AEA)], endogenously produced arachidonate-based lipids, are …

The efficient synthesis of a β-thiol phenylalanine derivative is described starting from
Garner's aldehyde. The utility of this amino acid in peptide ligation–desulfurization chemistry …

The choroid plexus (ChP) epithelium is a multifunctional tissue found in the ventricles of the
brain. The major function of the ChP epithelium is to produce cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) that …
