The blood-brain barrier [PDF]

open access: goldArquivos de Neuro-Psiquiatria, 1958
Whether electrolytes, colloids, vital dyes or other complex molecules, the rate of penetration of many plasma solutes into the extravascular fluids of the central nervous system is considerably slower than into the extra-vascular fluids of most other tissues.

Dissecting gene expression at the blood-brain barrier [PDF]

open access: yesFrontiers in Neuroscience, 2014
The availability of genome-wide expression data for the blood-brain barrier is an invaluable resource that has recently enabled the discovery of several genes and pathways involved in the development and maintenance of the blood-brain barrier ...

Structure and function of the blood–brain barrier

open access: yesNeurobiology of Disease, 2010
Neural signalling within the central nervous system (CNS) requires a highly controlled microenvironment. Cells at three key interfaces form barriers between the blood and the CNS: the blood–brain barrier (BBB), blood–CSF barrier and the arachnoid barrier.

Vesicular Trafficking, a Mechanism Controlled by Cascade Activation of Rab Proteins: Focus on Rab27

open access: yesBiology, 2023
Vesicular trafficking is essential for the cell to internalize useful proteins and soluble substances, for cell signaling or for the degradation of pathogenic elements such as bacteria or viruses.

Highlighting In Vitro the Role of Brain-like Endothelial Cells on the Maturation and Metabolism of Brain Pericytes by SWATH Proteomics

open access: yesCells, 2023
Within the neurovascular unit, brain pericytes (BPs) are of major importance for the induction and maintenance of the properties of the blood-brain barrier (BBB) carried by the brain microvessel endothelial cells (ECs).

The blood–brain barrier: Structure, regulation and drug delivery

open access: yesSignal Transduction and Targeted Therapy, 2023
Blood–brain barrier (BBB) is a natural protective membrane that prevents central nervous system (CNS) from toxins and pathogens in blood. However, the presence of BBB complicates the pharmacotherapy for CNS disorders as the most chemical drugs and ...

Appearance of claudin-5+ leukocyte subtypes in the blood and CNS during progression of EAE

open access: yesJournal of Neuroinflammation, 2021
Background Tight junctions (TJs) are membrane specializations characteristic of barrier-forming membranes, which function to seal the aqueous pathway between endothelial cells or epithelial cells and, thereby, obstruct intercellular solute and cellular ...

RETRACTED ARTICLE: Secretome of endothelial progenitor cells from stroke patients promotes endothelial barrier tightness and protects against hypoxia-induced vascular leakage

open access: yesStem Cell Research & Therapy, 2021
Background Cell-based therapeutic strategies have been proposed as an alternative for brain repair after stroke, but their clinical application has been hampered by potential adverse effects in the long term.
