English translation:Cerebrospinal fluid
Explanation:
O líquido cefalorraquidiano (LCR), Fluido cerebrospinal, ou Líquor, é um fluido corporal estéril e de aparência clara que ocupa o espaço subaracnóideo no cérebro (espaço entre o crânio e o córtex cerebral—mais especificamente, entre as membranas aracnoide e pia-máter das meninges) e no espaço subaracnóideo na medula espinhal. É uma solução salina muito pura, pobre em proteínas e células, e age como um amortecedor para o córtex cerebral e a medula espinhal


Cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) is a clear, colorless body fluid found in the brain and spinal cord. It is produced in the choroid plexuses of the ventricles of the brain, and absorbed in the arachnoid granulations. There is about 125mL of CSF at any one time, and about 500mL is generated every day. CSF acts as a cushion or buffer for the brain, providing basic mechanical and immunological protection to the brain inside the skull. The CSF also serves a vital function in cerebral autoregulation of cerebral blood flow.
