Aging compromises the lymphatic vessels surrounding the brain, disabling waste drainage from the brain and impacting cognitive function. Researchers boosted lymphatic vessel integrity in old mice and ...

A series of recent studies has pinpointed the specific molecules and biological pathways through which physical activity protects the brain from aging, disease, and toxic protein buildup. Researchers ...

A new device that monitors the waste-removal system of the brain may help to prevent Alzheimer s and other neurological diseases, according to a new study. In the study, participants were asleep when ...

Poor sleep among older adults is linked to disruptions in the brain’s “waste removal system”, according to researchers at The University of Hong Kong (HKU). A recent study led by Professor Tatia M.C.

Impaired glymphatic function — the brain’s waste clearance system — could help explain how cardiovascular disease (CVD) risk factors may drive dementia. In a large UK Biobank study, MRI markers of ...

Aging compromises the lymphatic vessels (green) in tissue called the meninges (blue) surrounding the brain, disabling waste drainage from the brain and impacting cognitive function. Researchers at ...
