34 results about "Choroid plexus" patented technology

The choroid plexus is a plexus of cells that produces the cerebrospinal fluid in the ventricles of the brain. The choroid plexus consists of modified ependymal cells.

Whole-body mathematical model for simulating intracranial pressure dynamics

A whole-body mathematical model (10) for simulating intracranial pressure dynamics. In one embodiment, model (10) includes 17 interacting compartments, of which nine lie entirely outside of intracranial vault (14). Compartments (F) and (T) are defined to distinguish ventricular from extraventricular CSF. The vasculature of the intracranial system within cranial vault (14) is also subdivided into five compartments (A, C, P, V, and S, respectively) representing the intracranial arteries, capillaries, choroid plexus, veins, and venous sinus. The body's extracranial systemic vasculature is divided into six compartments (I, J, O, Z, D, and X, respectively) representing the arteries, capillaries, and veins of the central body and the lower body. Compartments (G) and (B) include tissue and the associated interstitial fluid in the intracranial and lower regions. Compartment (Y) is a composite involving the tissues, organs, and pulmonary circulation of the central body and compartment (M) represents the external environment.

Anti-clogging ventricular catheter for cerebrospinal fluid drainage

ActiveUS20100222732A1Reduce CSF shunt obstructionAvoid cloggingStentsBalloon catheterEpendymal TissueCsf shunt
A novel ventricular catheter designed to reduce CSF shunt obstruction is disclosed comprising a tip using a membrane without any opening and capable of filtering the CSF. When the CSF flows through the membrane, neither tissue (choroid plexus, blood cells, tumor cells, suctioned ependymal tissue) nor proteins can break through the membrane, making this ventricular catheter capable of preventing obstruction from tissue invasion but also preventing clogging from protein precipitation, coagulation or flocculation along the downstream shunt system.

Shunt flusher

ActiveUS20160038724A1Quick releaseWound drainsMedical devicesBlocked catheterChoroid plexus
A device and system for flushing a shunt catheter utilizes the available cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) to flush a blocked catheter. The CSF is pressurized to a predetermined amount and then allowed to suddenly, rapidly and forcefully purge any occlusions. The rapid release of CSF produces flow jets from the catheter pores into the ventricle. This impulse, or “cough”, will push and divert choroid plexus and / or other blockages away from the pores. The device and system may then be allowed to refill at a slow rate, thus reducing the possibility of rapid suction of fluid back into the system and the attendant possibility of drawing the choroid plexus back into the pores. The catheter at the proximal end may also include back-up pores that can be opened to restart flow from the ventricle should the primary pores remain blocked after a flushing attempt.

Construction method and application of transgenic animal with blood-brain barrier permeability enhanced

The invention discloses a construction method and an application of a transgenic mouse with blood-brain barrier permeability enhanced. The construction method of the transgenic mouse with blood-brain barrier permeability enhanced comprises the step of modifying genes of a mouse, so that expression quantity of slit protein is increased, and a transgenic animal model with blood-brain barrier permeability enhanced is obtained; Study shows that overexpression of slit protein can cause that a tricorn of the mouse is enlarged, a choroid plexus structure is seriously destroyed, and tight junction of epithelium cells is lost; observation on a vascular structure of the brain of a Slit-Tg mouse by virtue of immunofluorescent staining shows that bifurcation of blood vessels of the brain of the Slit-Tg mouse is less, more microvessels exist, the shapes of vessels are incomplete and the distribution of the vessels is irregular; a transmission electron microscope map also shows that endothelial cells of the Slit-Tg mouse are damaged and highly irregular and basement membranes of vessels are incomplete. Evansblueassay detects that the permeability of the mouse is enhanced, i.e., the detection result shows that the blood-brain barrier permeability of the Slit-Tg mouse is enhanced, the Slit-Tg mouse can be applied to an animal experiment of central nervous system drugs and the Slit-Tg mouse can be used for screening, research and development as well as therapeutic effect evaluation on nervous system drugs.
