Capsule independent uptake of the fungal pathogen Cryptococcus neoformans into brain microvascular endothelial cells. [PDF]
, 2012 Cryptococcosis is a life-threatening fungal disease with a high rate of mortality among HIV/AIDS patients across the world. The ability to penetrate the blood-brain barrier (BBB) is central to the pathogenesis of cryptococcosis, but the way in which this

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.The novel styrylquinazolinone‐based molecule W1B effectively suppresses glioblastoma by inhibiting IGF1R and EGFR. In high‐glucose microenvironments driving tumor resistance, W1B acts synergistically with the EGFR inhibitor dacomitinib. This combination safely blocks compensatory survival signaling in zebrafish xenograft models. Showcasing promising in

Pharmaceutics, 2021 The blood–brain barrier is a major obstacle in treating brain-related disorders, as it does not allow the delivery of drugs into the brain. We developed a method for predicting blood–brain barrier penetrating peptides to facilitate drug delivery into the

Aquaporin and Blood Brain Barrier [PDF]
Current Neuropharmacology, 2010 Large water fluxes continuously take place between the different compartments of the brain as well as between the brain parenchyma and the blood or cerebrospinal fluid.Disturbances in this well-regulated water homeostasis may have deleterious effects on brain function and may be fatal in cases where water accumulates in the brain following pathologies ...

Nanoparticulate transport of oximes over an in vitro blood-brain barrier model [PDF]
, 2010 Background: Due to the use of organophosphates (OP) as pesticides and the availability of OP-type nerve agents, an effective medical treatment for OP poisonings is still a challenging problem.

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.The cytoskeleton‐mediated transport of mitochondria via tunnelling nanotubes restores respiration, increases ATP production, rescues cells from apoptosis, activates the AKT/mTOR signalling pathway, promotes cell migration and invasiveness, contributes to cancer progression and treatment resistance.

Neural Regeneration Research, 2015 Drugs for the treatment and prevention of nervous system diseases must permeate the blood-brain barrier to take effect. In vitro models of the blood-brain barrier are therefore important in the investigation of drug permeation mechanisms.

A breach in the blood-brain barrier [PDF]
Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 2005 A fundamental problem affecting the efficacy of drugs is their ability to be delivered from the site of administration to the site of pathology. Nowhere is this issue a more confounding problem than for protein drugs designed to treat the neuropathology associated with many lysosomal storage diseases (LSDs) where the blood-brain barrier (BBB) stands in

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.Repair of neuronal DNA damage in Alzheimer's disease by KCL‐286. (A) Amyloid‐β oligomers and plaques impair neuronal DNA repair pathways, leading to DNA double‐strand breaks and glial activation. (B) KCL‐286 activates RARβ/RXR signalling via retinoic acid response elements (RAREs), associated with increased BRCA1 expression, enhanced DNA repair and ...
