In this case, the patient was initially misdiagnosed because the CSF showed a low cell count, which might have precluded the possibility of conducting a morphological analysis, and because such an ...

The microtubule-based multicilia formed on the apical surface of ependymal cells beat synchronously to propel the directional flow of cerebrospinal fluid (CSF). Dysfunction of ependymal multicilia is ...

This study analyzed the consequences of Agbl5 mutation on ependymal cell development and function. The authors first characterize their mutant mouse line reporting a reduced lifespand and severe ...

While the exact mechanism of ependymal and choroid plexus uptake of CSF blood and blood breakdown products after GMH-IVH is unknown, it is possible that cellular iron transporters involved in blood ...

Finally, a number of studies suggest that the CSF system during development is more compartmentalized than in the adult and young adult brain due to the presence of strap junctions between ependymal ...
