Are diurnal variations in glymphatic clearance driven by circadian regulation of Aquaporin-4 expression?

Abstract Aquaporin-4 (AQP4) is a key astrocytic water channel protein predominantly localized to perivascular endfeet, where it is believed to play a crucial role in brain fluid homeostasis and glymphatic waste clearance. Previous studies have suggested that the perivascular expression of AQP4 is re...
