The article reflects the current position of the issue of morphologies of the pathways of intercellular circulation in the brain. There are covered main, known at present time, data on the features of the exchange between the spinal fluid and intercellular fluid, the ways of elimination of the intertissued fluid of the brain through the so-called “glymphatic system”, its components: transarterial, transvenous, and transglial ways of intercellular fluid outflow from brain tissue. It also raises the question of the role of glia namely astrocytes and ependymocytes – as the main cells forming the haemato-encephalic barrier and participating in the intercellular circulation.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
