"Chemo brain" — chemotherapy-induced difficulties with focusing, thinking and remembering — may be caused by the cancer treatment's disruption to the brain's lymphatic system, an early-stage study suggests.
The study zoomed in on the meningeal lymphatics, the drainage network found in the protective tissue layer surrounding the brain. Dysfunction in this network has been linked to Alzheimer's disease, Parkinson's disease and traumatic brain injuries.
