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 ...

"In vitro" evaluation of blood-brain barrier transport [PDF]

, 2014
The blood-brain barrier (BBB), which is formed by brain capillary endothelial cells, effectively protects the central nervous system (CNS) from potential neurotoxic agents and maintains the brain homeostasis for synaptic signaling (Abbott, 2004 ...

What is the blood–brain barrier (not)? [PDF]

Trends in Immunology, 2007
In 1900, summarizing his experiments with toxins and Ehrlich's earlier observations with intravital dyes, the Berlin physician Lewandowski concluded that "brain capillaries must hold back certain molecules". Illustrating this phenomenon with persuasive beauty, the subsequently evolving metaphor of a 'Bluthirnschranke' (blood-brain barrier, BBB) gained ...

Blood-Brain Barrier: From Physiology to Disease and Back.

Physiological Reviews, 2019
The blood-brain barrier (BBB) prevents neurotoxic plasma components, blood cells, and pathogens from entering the brain. At the same time, the BBB regulates transport of molecules into and out of the central nervous system (CNS), which maintains tightly ...

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.

Blood-Brain Barriers in Obesity [PDF]

The AAPS Journal, 2017
After decades of rapid increase, the rate of obesity in adults in the USA is beginning to slow and the rate of childhood obesity is stabilizing. Despite these improvements, the obesity epidemic continues to be a major health and financial burden.

Blood—Brain Barrier Genomics [PDF]

Journal of Cerebral Blood Flow & Metabolism, 2001
The blood–brain barrier (BBB) is formed by the brain microvascular endothelium, and the unique transport properties of the BBB are derived from tissue-specific gene expression within this cell. The current studies developed a gene microarray approach specific for the BBB by purifying the initial mRNA from isolated rat brain capillaries to generate ...

The gut microbiota influences blood-brain barrier permeability in mice

Science Translational Medicine, 2014
The intestinal microbiota helps to maintain the integrity of the blood-brain barrier in fetal and adult mice. The Gut Microbiota and the Blood-Brain Barrier The blood-brain barrier is an important gateway that controls the passage of molecules and ...

The blood-brain barrier in aging and neurodegeneration

Molecular Psychiatry, 2022
The blood-brain barrier (BBB) is vital for maintaining brain homeostasis by enabling an exquisite control of exchange of compounds between the blood and the brain parenchyma.
