"In vitro" models of the blood-brain barrier : applications and evaluation of a new human immortalized brain capillary endothelial cell line [PDF]
An optimal in vitro permeability screening model for the evaluation of BBB drug permeability accounts for active and passive transport processes, as well as for nondefined drug-cell interactions.

Vascular endothelial function is challenged during cerebral ischemia and reperfusion. The endothelial responses are involved in inflammatory leukocyte attraction, adhesion and infiltration, blood–brain barrier leakage, and angiogenesis.

Brain homeostasis : VEGF receptor 1 and 2 ; two unequal brothers in mind [PDF]
Vascular endothelial growth factors (VEGFs), initially thought to act specifically on the vascular system, exert trophic effects on neural cells during development and adulthood.

Low dose cranial irradiation-induced cerebrovascular damage is reversible in mice. [PDF]
BACKGROUND: High-dose radiation-induced blood-brain barrier breakdown contributes to acute radiation toxicity syndrome and delayed brain injury, but there are few data on the effects of low dose cranial irradiation.

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

Cell-surface proteins that can endocytose into brain microvascular endothelial cells serve as promising candidates for receptor-mediated transcytosis across the blood–brain barrier (BBB).

Endothelial Glycocalyx on Brain Endothelial Cells is Lost in Experimental Cerebral Malaria [PDF]
We hypothesized that the glycocalyx, which is important for endothelial integrity, is lost in severe malaria. C57BL/6 mice were infected with Plasmodium berghei ANKA, resulting in cerebral malaria, or P. chabaudi AS, resulting in uncomplicated malaria.

Nanoparticle accumulation and transcytosis in brain endothelial cell layers [PDF]
The blood-brain barrier (BBB) is a selective barrier, which controls and limits access to the central nervous system (CNS). The selectivity of the BBB relies on specialized characteristics of the endothelial cells that line the microvasculature, including the expression of intercellular tight junctions, which limit paracellular permeability.

Effects of Fullerenols on Mouse Brain Microvascular Endothelial Cells [PDF]
Fullerenols, water-soluble C60-fullerene derivatives, have been shown to exert neuroprotective effects in vitro and in vivo, most likely due to their capability to scavenge free radicals. However, little is known about the effects of fullerenols on the blood–brain barrier (BBB), especially on cerebral endothelial cells under inflammatory conditions ...

Genetic manipulation of brain endothelial cells in vivo
Abstract Brain endothelial cells take center stage of the blood–brain barrier. They maintain homeostasis in the central nervous system (CNS) and are involved in the pathophysiology of many neurological diseases. So far investigations of their function have largely depended on in vitro models that lack the important impact of other cells and ...
