Lecture Abstract:
Glymphatic system is a novel clearance mechanism in brain which is responsible for the cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) flow into the brain parenchyma along arterial perivascular space and subsequently into the brain interstitial space which facilitated by the highly polarization of aquaporin 4 (AQP4) water channels on astrocyte, then directs flow forward to venous perivascular space ultimately clearing solutes from the neuropil into meningeal and cervical lymphatic drainage vessels(1). In animal studies, Iliff et al. and other researchers had found that glymphatic system contributes to 55-65% clearance of β-amyloid protein from the mice brain(2, 3). Recently, Harrison et al. showed that glymphatic clearance related to cortical tau deposition in mouse model of tauopathy(4). The dysfunction of glymphatic system had also been proposed as the final common pathway for Alzheimer’s disease (AD) and other primary neurodegenerative disease(5). Despite that substantial knowledge regarding glymphatic system had been gained from animal studies, further study is needed to confirm if these findings could be applied to humans. Recently developed amyloid and tau position emission tomography (PET) image and DTI-ALPS method provide us an opportunity to explore the association between glymphatic activity and amyloid, tau deposition in patients with AD. Our hypothesis is glymphatic activity could be a mediator between amyloid and tau deposition on cognitive dysfunction in patients with AD.
