Description

Yijia Feng and co-authors review the meningeal lymphatic system as a target for treating brain degeneration. Their twenty twenty-five paper covers vessels in the membranes around the brain. New imaging brought this drainage web into clear view over the past decade.

These vessels drain spinal fluid and immune cells, acting as a hub for brain immune watch. With age they shrink and work less well, which may feed diseases like Alzheimer disease. The review sums key finds on their form and role in brain balance. It also maps neuro-immune talk in the meninges. Boosting this drainage is now a live idea for diagnosis and therapy.
