Lessons from glaucoma: rethinking the fluid-brain barriers in common neurodegenerative disorders.

abstract：:For decades, clinicians have developed medications and therapies to alleviate the symptoms of Parkinson's disease, but no treatment currently can slow or even stop the progression of this localized neurodegeneration. Fortunately, sparked by the genetic revolution, stem cell reprogramming research and the advancing cap...
