The choroid plexus, or plica choroidea, is a plexus of cells that arises from the tela choroidea in each of the ventricles of the brain.[1] Regions of the choroid plexus produce and secrete most of the cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) of the central nervous system.[2][3] The choroid plexus consists of modified ependymal cells surrounding a core of capillaries and loose connective tissue.[3] Multiple cilia on the ependymal cells move to circulate the cerebrospinal fluid.[4]
