In the early 2000s, mouse studies demonstrated that the majority (75%) of extracellular Aβ (eAβ) is cleared by the BBB, with only a minority (10%) being cleared by ISF bulk flow. PubMed:26195256

act(p(HGNC:AQP4)) decreases p(CHEBI:"amyloid-beta", loc(GO:"extracellular region")) View Subject | View Object

However, two-photon imaging studies from the past few years have suggested that ISF bulk flow—facilitated by astroglial aquaporin-4 (AQP4) channels and named the glymphatic (glial + lymphatic) system—contributes to a larger portion of eAβ clearance than previously thought. PubMed:26195256
