Disruption of embryonic blood-CSF barrier in chick embryos reveals the actual importance of this barrier to control E-CSF composition and homeostasis in early brain development [PDF]

, 2013
In vertebrates, early brain development takes place at the expanded anterior end of the neural tube. After closure of the anterior neuropore, the brain wall forms a physiologically sealed cavity that encloses embryonic cerebrospinal fluid (E-CSF), a ...

The dynamic blood–brain barrier [PDF]

The FEBS Journal, 2015
With the endothelium as its central unit, the blood–brain barrier (BBB) is a complex multicellular structure separating the central nervous system (CNS) from the systemic circulation. Disruption of the BBB has now been implicated in a multitude of acute and chronic CNS disorders indicating the potentially devastating effects of BBB breakdown on brain ...

Glucose-targeted niosomes deliver vasoactive intestinal peptide (VIP) to the brain [PDF]

, 2004
The aim of this study was to evaluate glucose-bearing niosomes as a brain targeted delivery system for the vasoactive intestinal peptide (VIP). To this end, VIP/125I-VIP-loaded glucose-bearing niosomes were intravenously injected to mice.

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

Neurobiology 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 ...

Influence of serotonin on the blood-brain and blood-spinal cord barriers : Serotonin and the blood-brain barrier

, 2004
Serotonin concentration is very high in the CNS and several serotonergic receptors are present in the cerebral vessels. Elevation of plasma and tissue serotonin occurs under a wide variety of neurological and psychiatric conditions.

Wnt/beta-catenin signaling controls development of the blood–brain barrier [PDF]

, 2008
The blood–brain barrier (BBB) is confined to the endothelium of brain capillaries and is indispensable for fluid homeostasis and neuronal function. In this study, we show that endothelial Wnt/beta-catenin (beta-cat) signaling regulates induction and ...

Structure and function of the blood–brain barrier

Neurobiology 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.

Research progress on perioperative blood-brain barrier damage and its potential mechanism

Frontiers in Cell and Developmental Biology, 2023
The blood-brain barrier (BBB) is an important barrier separating the central nervous system from the periphery. The composition includes endothelial cells, pericytes, astrocytes, synapses and tight junction proteins.

Uptake mechanism of ApoE-modified nanoparticles on brain capillary endothelial cells as a blood-brain barrier model [PDF]

, 2012
Background: The blood-brain barrier (BBB) represents an insurmountable obstacle for most drugs thus obstructing an effective treatment of many brain diseases.

Wnt activation of immortalized brain endothelial cells as a tool for generating a standardized model of the blood brain barrier in vitro [PDF]

, 2013
Reproducing the characteristics and the functional responses of the blood–brain barrier (BBB) in vitro represents an important task for the research community, and would be a critical biotechnological breakthrough.
