Organoids in pediatric cancer research

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Organoid technology has revolutionized cancer research, yet its application in pediatric oncology remains limited. Recent advances have enabled the development of pediatric tumor organoids, offering new insights into disease biology, treatment response, and interactions with the tumor microenvironment.

The embryonic blood-CSF barrier has molecular elements for specific glucose transport and for the general transport of molecules via transcellular routes.

open access: yes, 2010
In vertebrates, early brain development takes place at the expanded anterior end of the neural tube, which is filled with embryonic cerebrospinal fluid (E-CSF).

Gut microbiome and aging—A dynamic interplay of microbes, metabolites, and the immune system

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Age‐dependent shifts in microbial communities engender shifts in microbial metabolite profiles. These in turn drive shifts in barrier surface permeability of the gut and brain and induce immune activation. When paired with preexisting age‐related chronic inflammation this increases the risk of neuroinflammation and neurodegenerative diseases.

Extracellular vesicles through the blood–brain barrier: a review

open access: yesFluids and Barriers of the CNS, 2022
Extracellular vesicles (EVs) are particles naturally released from cells that are delimited by a lipid bilayer and are unable to replicate. How the EVs cross the Blood–Brain barrier (BBB) in a bidirectional manner between the bloodstream and brain ...

Diversity and complexity in neural organoids

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Neural organoid research aims to expand genetic diversity on one side and increase tissue complexity on the other. Chimeroids integrate multiple donor genomes within single organoids. Self‐organising multi‐identity organoids, exogenous cell seeding, or enforced assembly of region‐specific organoids contribute to tissue complexity.

A breach in the blood-brain barrier [PDF]

open access: yesProceedings 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

Nanoparticle-mediated brain drug delivery: Overcoming blood-brain barrier to treat neurodegenerative diseases.

open access: yesJournal of Controlled Release, 2016
The blood-brain barrier (BBB) is a vital boundary between neural tissue and circulating blood. The BBB's unique and protective features control brain homeostasis as well as ion and molecule movement. Failure in maintaining any of these components results

Secretome of brain microvascular endothelial cells promotes endothelial barrier tightness and protects against hypoxia-induced vascular leakage

open access: yesMolecular Medicine
Cell-based therapeutic strategies have been proposed as an alternative for brain and blood vessels repair after stroke, but their clinical application is hampered by potential adverse effects.

Organoid-engineered neurovascular units for drug discovery and neurodegeneration research [PDF]

open access: yesBioImpacts
The highly selective permeability of the human blood-brain barrier presents a major obstacle to neurological disease modeling. Established 2D cell cultures and animal models are unable to accurately reproduce the physiological and molecular features of ...
