Cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) circulates through the central nervous system, providing mechanical protection, nutrient delivery and metabolic waste clearance. In recent years, the concept of a glymphatic ...

The kinetics of amyloid beta turnover within human brain is still poorly understood. We previously found a dramatic decline in the turnover of Aβ peptides in normal aging. It was not known if brain ...

A multitude of genes have been linked to the development of Alzheimer's disease. Specifically how those genes might influence the progression of neurodegeneration remains something of a black box ...

Biomedical engineers at Duke University have developed a technique to noninvasively visualize the brain's waste-removal ...

A study linked spontaneous spinal CSF leaks to genetic variants that weaken connective tissue around the spinal cord, ...

Whole-exome sequencing revealed variants in a gene that compromise connective tissue integrity and may increase a person’s ...

Scientists at the Institute for Basic Science (IBS) have uncovered a non-invasive method to boost the brain's natural waste drainage system—a discovery that could open new avenues for tackling ...

NCCN now endorses CSF-based profiling for biopsy-infeasible HGG/GBM to enable molecular characterization required for ...

Growth recovery in patients with BRAF altered pediatric low-grade gliomas (LGG) after discontinuation of tovorafenib. This is an ASCO Meeting Abstract from the 2025 ASCO Annual Meeting I. This ...

CAMBRIDGE, Mass.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Cognito Therapeutics, a neurotechnology company advancing disease-modifying therapies to treat CNS diseases, today announced the publication of a study in ...

Researchers at Cedars-Sinai Health Sciences University and Johns Hopkins University have identified genetic mutations that may explain why some people develop a spontaneous cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) ...
