Aging Reduces the Neuroprotective Capacity, VEGF Secretion, and Metabolic Activity of Rat Choroid Plexus Epithelial Cells
Delivery of neurotrophic molecules to the brain has potential for preventing neuronal loss in neurodegenerative disorders. Choroid plexus (CP) epithelial cells secrete numerous neurotrophic factors, and encapsulated CP transplants are neuroprotective in models of stroke and Huntington's disease...
