Abstract. Our brains consist of 80% water, which is continuously shifted between different compartments and cell types during physiological and pathophysiological processes. Disturbances in brain water homeostasis occur with pathologies such as brain oedema and hydrocephalus, in which fluid accumulation leads to elevated intracranial pressure.
To control brain fluid dynamics in pathophysiology, it is imperative to understand fluid transport at the molecular level. This Review examines the molecular mechanisms underlying...
There are regulated or physiological (e.g. osmoreceptors in the brain and mouth, baroreceptors in blood vessels and atrium) and non-regulated (e.g. social, cultural, behavioral) factors that influence water intake (25,35,43) and fluid balance.
We critically review the most recent advances in both behavioural and neuroimaging studies of dehydration and link the findings to the known effects of water on hormonal, neurochemical and vascular functions in an attempt to suggest plausible mechanisms of action.
