Permeability of the Blood-Brain Barrier and Transport of Nanobodies Across the Blood-Brain Barrier [PDF]

open access: diamondFolia Veterinaria, 2018
The presence of a blood-brain barrier (BBB) and a blood-cerebrospinal fluid barrier presents animmense challenge for effective delivery of therapeutics to the central nervous system. Many potential drugs, which are effective at their site of action, have

The Blood–Brain Barrier [PDF]

open access: yesCold Spring Harbor Perspectives in Biology, 2015
Blood vessels are critical to deliver oxygen and nutrients to all of the tissues and organs throughout the body. The blood vessels that vascularize the central nervous system (CNS) possess unique properties, termed the blood-brain barrier, which allow these vessels to tightly regulate the movement of ions, molecules, and cells between the blood and the

Blood-brain barrier transport kinetics of NOTA-modified proteins : the somatropin case [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
BACKGROUND: Chemical modifications such as PEG, polyamine and radiolabeling on proteins can alter their pharmacokinetic behaviour and their blood-brain barrier (BBB) transport characteristics. NOTA, i.e. 1,4,7-triazacyclononane-1,4,7-triacetic acid, is a

Glutamate-mediated blood-brain barrier opening. implications for neuroprotection and drug delivery [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
The blood-brain barrier is a highly selective anatomical and functional interface allowing a unique environment for neuro-glia networks. Blood-brain barrier dysfunction is common in most brain disorders and is associated with disease course and delayed ...

Human ES-derived MSCs correct TNF-α-mediated alterations in a blood–brain barrier model

open access: yesFluids and Barriers of the CNS, 2019
Background Immune cell trafficking into the CNS is considered to contribute to pathogenesis in MS and its animal model, EAE. Disruption of the blood–brain barrier (BBB) is a hallmark of these pathologies and a potential target of therapeutics.

Mechanisms of modulation of brain microvascular endothelial cells function by thrombin. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Brain microvascular endothelial cells are a critical component of the blood-brain barrier. They form a tight monolayer which is essential for maintaining the brain homeostasis.

Blood-Brain Barrier Genomics [PDF]

open access: yesStroke, 2007
Blood-brain barrier (BBB) genomics begins with the isolation of capillaries from fresh animal or human brain and is followed on the same day with the purification of capillary-derived RNA. The identification of microvascular-enriched genes from a whole brain gene microarray is unlikely because the brain capillary endothelial volume is <0.1% of total

Spatiotemporal resolution of spinal meningeal and parenchymal inflammation during experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis

open access: yesNeurobiology of Disease, 2017
Experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis (EAE) induced by active immunization of C57BL/6 mice with peptide from myelin oligodendrocyte protein (MOG35–55), is a neuroinflammatory, demyelinating disease widely recognized as an animal model of multiple ...
