It isn't precisely identical with CSF, because the extracellular space is so narrow and contorted that diffusion takes a long time, but it is quite similar. A recent paper found that during sleep neurons shrink a little bit, causing the extracellular space to expand, allowing waste products to diffuse away more efficiently. read more

Actually, there isn't much space between neurons, and they do touch. What"space" exists is occupied by glial cells. This is the way images of neurons are often presented: This image is misleading because a special staining technique has been used that blackens less than 1% of cells. read more
