Xenotransplantation . 2006 Jun; 13(4):284-8. PMID: 16768721
The choroid plexus (CP) produces and secretes numerous biologically active neurotrophic factors into the cerebrospinal fluid (CSF). These circulate throughout the brain and spinal cord, maintaining neuronal networks and associated...

Bioessays . 2005 Feb; 27(3):262-74. PMID: 15714561
The choroid plexuses (CPs) are involved in the most-basic aspects of neural function including maintaining the extracellular milieu of the brain by actively modulating chemical exchange between the CSF and...

Expert Opin Biol Ther . 2004 Jul; 4(8):1191-201. PMID: 15268655
The choroid plexus (CP) produces cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) and forms the blood-CSF barrier. However, the CP may have additional functions in the CNS beyond these traditional roles. Preclinical and clinical...
