Deep in the brain, sheets of tissue known as the choroid plexus produce cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) and act as a protective ...

Inflammation of the Embryonic Choroid Plexus Barrier following Maternal Immune Activation. Developmental Cell , 2020; DOI: 10.1016/j.devcel.2020.09.020 Cite This Page : ...

A longitudinal, observational study found that the choroid plexus, a network of blood vessels in each ventricle of the brain, plays a potential role in the neurodegenerative and chronic ...

Increased volume of an important structure in the brain called the choroid plexus is linked to greater cognitive impairment and Alzheimer’s disease, according to a new study.

Moon and colleagues assessed 532 cognitively impaired patients who had 3.0-Tesla MRI brain scans between January 2013 and May 2020. Mean age was 72 and 73% were women.

The Lehtinen laboratory, part of Boston Children's Department of Pathology, is one of the few in the world to study the choroid plexus.

The Lehtinen Laboratory, part of Boston Children’s Department of Pathology, studying the choroid plexus, decided to investigate what happens when the barrier is challenged.

We designed a rhesus macaque 2D choroid plexus epithelial cell culture, as well as a modified 3D cell culture model, in order to study activation, diffusion, and migration through the choroid plexus.

This complication tends to be particularly prominent in patients with Alzheimer's disease, in which inflammation has emerged as a major driver of pathology." The research provides strong support to ...

Choroid plexus tumors are rare growths that can be cancerous, but most are not. However, they can still cause disruptive symptoms.
