Targeting oxidative distress to treat chemobrain: Go with the choroid plexus-cerebrospinal fluid flow

Neuron. 2022 Oct 19;110(20):3219-3222. doi: 10.1016/j.neuron.2022.09.016.

Abstract

Chemobrain is a variable but debilitating consequence of lifesaving cancer treatments. In this issue of Neuron, Jang and colleagues provide a new conceptual framework based on choroid plexus-CSF antioxidant status that advances understanding of chemobrain's nervous system pathobiology and identifies novel therapeutic opportunities.
