The choroid plexus, which makes up the blood-cerebrospinal fluid barrier in the central nervous system (CNS), lines the ventricles, produces cerebrospinal fluid, and protects the brain via a physical ...

Protective borders between the brain and the blood weaken with age. This includes the barrier formed by tightly linked epithelial cells in the choroid plexus, which generates cerebrospinal fluid. In ...

Researchers have identified three genes that play a pivotal role in the brain tumor choroid plexus carcinoma (CPC), a discovery that lays the groundwork for more effective treatment of this rare, ...

Research found the choroid plexus and cerebrospinal fluid play a key role in maintaining a pool of newly born neurons to repair the adult brain after injury. University of Cincinnati researchers have ...

Zic family member 4 (ZIC4) is a tumor suppressive transcription factor that is epigenetically silenced in many types of cancers. In the current study, researchers from Children's Cancer Hospital Egypt ...

Scientists found the choroid plexus and cerebrospinal fluid play a key role in maintaining a pool of newly born neurons to repair the adult brain after injury. University of Cincinnati researchers ...

They confirmed this by identifying choroid plexus cells, the cell type that secretes cerebrospinal fluid into the ventricles of the brain, as the gateway for neuro-invasion. "The passage of Semliki ...

Cryo-EM has solved yet another molecular riddle. In the September 6 Acta Neuropathologica, scientists led by Bernardino Ghetti, Indiana University School of Medicine, Indianapolis, reported that ...
