Abstract excerpt
Choroid plexus (CP), best known for producing CSF, also regulate inflammation and clear metabolic waste to maintain brain homeostasis. CP dysfunction is implicated in Alzheimer's Disease (AD), with MRI studies showing CP enlargement in AD. The basis for CP enlargement is unknown. We hypothesized that calcium deposition within CP, which increases with aging and in certain neurodegenerative conditions, might...
