Abstract

"Commentary: Alcohol Consumption Impairs the Ependymal Cilia Motility in the Brain Ventricles".

Highlights

  • In a recent article, Al Omran et al investigate the mechanism behind cerebral spinal fluid (CSF) circulation in the brain[1]

  • Saternos and AbouAlaiwi possible to section the brain with a vibratome which will provide thinner slices leading to clearer images but requires the tissue to be out of solution for longer, reducing the time before the tissue degrades

  • There is a decision about accuracy, compared to a vibratome, which allows for more accurate region identification, hand slicing requires the researcher to blindly cut into the tissue risking damage to the ventricle or incorrect sectioning
