Assessing glymphatic role in the association between choroid plexus enlargement and white matter lesions load: The uncertain path through diffusion tensor imaging along the perivascular space (DTI-ALPS)

Background The choroid plexus (CP) is involved in cerebrospinal fluid production, immune surveillance, and brain fluid homeostasis. CP enlargement has been linked to neuroinflammation, glymphatic dysfunction, and white matter lesion (WML) burden, but the mechanisms underlying the...

Elevated translocator protein in skull bone marrow is linked to human chronic pain

The skull bone marrow (SBM) is emerging as a critical hub for neuroimmune signaling, yet its role in chronic pain is unknown. Using integrated positron emission tomography/magnetic resonance imaging, here, we show that the levels of 18-kilodalton translocator protein (TSPO), a pu...
