The choroid plexus is implicated in many functions in the brain, with one of these being regulating the production and composition of cerebrospinal fluid (CSF). This fluid is what provides the brain with protective buoyancy. The choroid plexus produces and secrets important molecules, such as transferrin, which is important for iron homeostasis in the brain. Choroid plexus cells also have a role in normal brain homeostasis as well as neuroinflammatory processes, by secreting cytokines that recruit monocyte-derived macrophages (among others) to the brain.
