Epithelial pathways in choroid plexus electrolyte transport.
نویسندگان
چکیده
A stable intraventricular milieu is crucial for maintaining normal neuronal function. The choroid plexus epithelium produces the cerebrospinal fluid and in doing so influences the chemical composition of the interstitial fluid of the brain. Here, we review the molecular pathways involved in transport of the electrolytes Na+, K+, Cl-, and HCO3(-)across the choroid plexus epithelium.

Abstract Background: Choroid plexus (CP) is a branched structure made up of a single layer of epithelial cells and blood capillaries, forming the blood-CSF-barrier. The CSF (cerebrospinal fluid) is mainly produced from the CP. Aquaporin1 (AQP1), water channels that are highly expressed on the apical side of the membrane in choroid plexus, have a major role in mediating water transport across th...
متن کاملCerebrospinal fluid secretion by the choroid plexus.
The choroid plexus epithelium is a cuboidal cell monolayer, which produces the majority of the cerebrospinal fluid. The concerted action of a variety of integral membrane proteins mediates the transepithelial movement of solutes and water across the epithelium. Secretion by the choroid plexus is characterized by an extremely high rate and by the unusual cellular polarization of well-known epith...

The choroid plexus, an epithelial-based structure localized in the brain ventricle, is the major component of the blood-cerebrospinal fluid barrier. The choroid plexus produces the cerebrospinal fluid and regulates the components of the cerebrospinal fluid. Abnormal choroid plexus function is associated with neurodegenerative diseases, tumor formation in the choroid plexus epithelium, and hydro...

The relationship of riboflavin transport to the transport of other substances including drugs in rabbit choroid plexus, the anatomical locus of the blood-cerebrospinal fluid barrier, and brain cells were studied in vivo and in vitro. In vitro, the ability of rabbit choroid plexus to transport riboflavin from the medium (cerebrospinal fluid surface) through the choroid plexus epithelial cells in...
متن کاملNa+-dependent HCO3- uptake into the rat choroid plexus epithelium is partially DIDS sensitive.
Several studies suggest the involvement of Na+ and HCO3- transport in the formation of cerebrospinal fluid. Two Na+-dependent HCO3- transporters were recently localized to the epithelial cells of the rat choroid plexus (NBCn1 and NCBE), and the mRNA for a third protein was also detected (NBCe2) (Praetorius J, Nejsum LN, and Nielsen S. Am J Physiol Cell Physiol 286: C601-C610, 2004). Our goal wa...
