Murine MPDZ‐linked hydrocephalus is caused by hyperpermeability of the choroid plexus

Abstract Though congenital hydrocephalus is heritable, it has been linked only to eight genes, one of which is MPDZ. Humans and mice that carry a truncated version of MPDZ incur severe hydrocephalus resulting in acute morbidity and lethality. We show by magnetic resonance imaging that contrast mediu...
