Abstract

The discovery of the glymphatic system, a waste clearance pathway in the brain, has drawn increasing attention to the relationship between sleep and neurological diseases such as Alzheimer's disease. Recent studies have revealed the mechanisms of action during sleep in rodents. However, some aspects remain unclear, including their contribution to aging and disease development, and their potential for prevention and early therapeutic intervention.
