Lymphatic drainage at the meningeal‐brain interface in aging and Alzheimer’s disease

Alzheimer’s disease (AD) is the most prevalent form of dementia. We have recently shown that proper meningeal lymphatic drainage is important for brain fluid flow, learning and memory in aging and for brain amyloid beta (Aβ) clearance in mouse models of AD. Interestingly, genetic factors that increased the risk for AD are also linked to altered meningeal lymphatic function.
