Evidence for Cerebrospinal Fluid Flow Through the Brain to Stagnate in Alzheimer's Disease
Key Takeaways
  • Alzheimer's mice showed global collapse of CSF recirculation.
  • Loss of perivascular AQP4 polarization was reported to reduce influx.
  • Dysfunctional brain lipid metabolism was found to impair CSF clearance.
