Cerebrospinal Fluid & Its Structure

Abstract

The CSF is created by particular ependymal cells within the choroid plexuses of the ventricles of the brain, and retained within the arachnoid granulations. There's around 125 mL of CSF at any one time, and approximately 500 mL is created each day. CSF acts as a pad or buffer, providing basic mechanical and immunological security to the brain interior the cranium. CSF too serves a imperative work within the cerebral autoregulation of cerebral blood stream.
