Targeting Brain’s Drainage Pathways Rejuvenates Memory

Targeting Brain’s Drainage Pathways Rejuvenates Memory
Summary: Rejuvenating the brain’s lymphatic vessels can enhance memory in aging mice by improving the removal of waste products from the brain. This research suggests that targeting the meningeal lymphatics—vessels outside the brain—could be a novel approach to treating age-related cognitive decline without directly crossing the blood-brain barrier.
