the major part of the CSF is produced in the brain by the ependymal cells in the choroid plexus. the rest is formed around blood vessels and along ventricular walls.

The cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) is produced from arterial blood by the choroid plexuses of the lateral and fourth ventricles by a combined process of diffusion, pinocytosis and active transfer. A small amount is also produced by ependymal cells.
