Purinergic signaling: A gatekeeper of blood-brain barrier permeation
Frontiers in Pharmacology, 2023 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.

In vitro blood-brain barrier models using brain capillary endothelial cells isolated from neonatal and adult rats retain age-related barrier properties. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2013 The blood-brain barrier (BBB) restricts the entry of circulating drugs and xenobiotics into the brain, and thus its permeability to substances is a critical factor that determines their central effects.

Engineered models for studying blood-brain-barrier-associated brain physiology and pathology [PDF]
Organoid, 2021 The blood-brain barrier (BBB) is a transport barrier that suppresses the translocation of potentially harmful substances to the brain tissue. Although the BBB is known to be associated with many kinds of neuropathology, such as neuroinflammation and ...

Vanishing topology of codimension 1 multi-germs over $\Bbb R$ and $\Bbb C$ [PDF]
, 2002 We construct all $\cal A$e-codimension 1 multi-germs of analytic (or smooth) maps (kn, T) [rightward arrow] (kp, 0), with n [gt-or-equal, slanted] p − 1, (n, p) nice dimensions, k = $\mathbb C$ or $\mathbb R$, by augmentation and concatenation operations,

Annihilating submodule graph for modules [PDF]
Transactions on Combinatorics, 2018 Let $R$ be a commutative ring and $M$ an $R$-module. In this article, we introduce a new generalization of the annihilating-ideal graph of commutative rings to modules. The annihilating submodule graph of $M$, denoted by $Bbb G(M)$, is an

Effects of Natural Polyphenols on Oxidative Stress-Mediated Blood-Brain Barrier Dysfunction
Antioxidants, 2022 The blood-brain barrier (BBB), which consists mainly of brain microvascular endothelial cells and astrocytes connected by tight junctions (TJs) and adhesion molecules (AMs), maintains the homeostatic balance between brain parenchyma and extracellular ...

Bioengineered microfluidic blood-brain barrier models in oncology research
Translational Oncology, 2021 Metastasis is the major reason for most brain tumors with up to a 50% chance of occurrence in patients with other types of malignancies. Brain metastasis occurs if cancer cells succeed to cross the ‘blood-brain barrier’ (BBB).
