BBB dynamics: the lifespan perspective [PDF]
Recent advances have shifted our understanding of the blood–brain barrier (BBB) not as a static wall, but as a dynamic and evolving system whose property is variable across the lifespan: acquisitive in early development, heterogeneous in adulthood, and ...

Liver X Receptor as a Possible Drug Target for Blood-Brain Barrier Integrity [PDF]
Purpose: blood-brain barrier (BBB) is made of specialized cells that are responsible for theselective passage of substances directed to the brain. The integrated BBB is essential for precisecontrolling of the different substances passage as well as ...

Effect of Endurance Exercise and Methamphetamine Administration on the Expression of Blood-Brain Barrier Related Factors and BDNF in Hippocampus of Male Sprague-Dawley Rat [PDF]
PURPOSE This study aimed to investigate the effect of short-term endurance exercise and methamphetamine administration on bloodbrain barrier (BBB)-related marker and brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) in the hippocampus of male Sprague-Dawley (SD ...

In this issue of Developmental Cell, Anbalagan et al. demonstrate that pituicytes, a subtype of astroglia, drive endothelial cell permeability in the zebrafish embryo neurohypophysis. This occurs via secretion of Vegfa/Tgfβ3 permeability factors that promote formation of fenestrae and the repression of anti-inflammatory retinoic acid signaling that ...

On bornological semi-abelian algebras [PDF]
If $\Bbb T$ is a semi-abelian algebraic theory, we prove that the category ${\rm Born}^{\Bbb T}$ of bornological $\Bbb T$-algebras is homological with semi-direct products.

Purinergic signaling: A gatekeeper of blood-brain barrier permeation
This review outlined evidence that purinergic signaling is involved in the modulation of blood-brain barrier (BBB) permeability. The functional and structural integrity of the BBB is critical for maintaining the homeostasis of the brain microenvironment.
