Our brains consist of 80% water, which is continuously shifted between different
compartments and cell types during physiological and pathophysiological processes …

The glymphatic system is a recently discovered macroscopic waste clearance system that
utilizes a unique system of perivascular tunnels, formed by astroglial cells, to promote …

The choroid plexus epithelium is a cuboidal cell monolayer, which produces the majority of
the cerebrospinal fluid. The concerted action of a variety of integral membrane proteins …

The SLC4 family consists of 10 genes (SLC4A1–5; SLC4A7–11). All encode integral
membrane proteins with very similar hydropathy plots—consistent with 10–14 …

The choroid plexus epithelium is a secretory epithelium par excellence. However, this is
perhaps not the most prominent reason for the massive interest in this modest-sized tissue …

Cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) envelops the brain and fills the central ventricles. This fluid is
continuously replenished by net fluid extraction from the vasculature by the secretory action …

Tumor hypoxia is associated clinically with therapeutic resistance and poor patient
outcomes. One feature of tumor hypoxia is activated expression of carbonic anhydrase IX …

Abstract Aquaporin 1 (AQP1) is a glycoprotein responsible for water passive transport
quickly across biological membrane. Here, we reviewed the structural and functional …

The cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) fills the brain ventricles and the subarachnoid space
surrounding the brain and spinal cord. The fluid compartment of the brain ventricles …

The choroid plexus is a tissue located in the lateral ventricles of the brain and is composed
mainly of choroid plexus epithelium cells. The main function is currently thought to be the …
