Development of Novel Therapeutics Targeting the Blood–Brain Barrier: From Barrier to Carrier
The blood–brain barrier (BBB) is a highly specialized neurovascular unit, initially described as an intact barrier to prevent toxins, pathogens, and potentially harmful substances from entering the brain.

Targeting of PTP4A3 overexpression sensitises HGSOC cells towards chemotherapeutic drugs
In HGSOC with normal KRAS expression, high PTP4A3 expression regulates autophagy activation. Conversely, in HGSOC with high KRAS expression, KRAS dictates autophagy control, and PTP4A3 is not required. When high PTP4A3 expression is inhibited, HGSOC cells are preferentially sensitised towards DNA‐damaging agents.

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

Predicting drug penetration across the blood-brain barrier: comparison of different stationary phases for immobilized artificial membrane liquid chromatography [PDF]
Several in vitro methods have been tested for their ability to predict drug penetration across the blood-brain barrier into the central nervous system. In this article, the performance of three stationary phases for immobilized artificial membrane (IAM ...

Review: Dystroglycan in the Nervous System [PDF]
Dystroglycan is part of a large complex of proteins, the dystrophin-glycoprotein complex, which has been implicated in the pathogenesis of muscular dystrophies for a long time.

APOE4 derived from astrocytes leads to blood–brain barrier impairment
Apolipoprotein E (ApoE) is a multifaceted secreted molecule synthesized in the CNS by astrocytes and microglia, and in the periphery largely by the liver.

The tumor microenvironment is a dynamic, multifaceted complex system of interdependent cellular, biochemical, and biophysical components. Three‐dimensional in vitro models of the tumor microenvironment enable a better understanding of these interactions and their impact on cancer progression and therapeutic resistance.

This review considers efflux of substances from brain parenchyma quantified as values of clearances (CL, stated in µL g−1 min−1). Total clearance of a substance is the sum of clearance values for all available routes including perivascular pathways and ...
