Construction and imaging of a neurovascular unit model
Neural Regeneration Research, 2022 In 2001, the concept of the neurovascular unit was introduced at the Stroke Progress Review Group meeting. The neurovascular unit is an important element of the health and disease status of blood vessels and nerves in the central nervous system.

Pathology of the neurovascular unit in leukodystrophies [PDF]
Acta Neuropathologica Communications, 2021 The blood–brain barrier is a dynamic endothelial cell barrier in the brain microvasculature that separates the blood from the brain parenchyma. Specialized brain endothelial cells, astrocytes, neurons, microglia and pericytes together compose the ...

Neurovascular Unit in Chronic Pain [PDF]
Mediators of Inflammation, 2013 Chronic pain is a debilitating condition with major socioeconomic impact, whose neurobiological basis is still not clear. An involvement of the neurovascular unit (NVU) has been recently proposed.

Neurovascular Unit Dysfunction and Neurodegenerative Disorders [PDF]
Frontiers in Neuroscience, 2020 The neurovascular unit (NVU), composed of vascular cells, glial cells, and neurons, is the minimal functional unit of the brain. The NVU maintains integrity of the blood–brain barrier (BBB) and regulates supply of the cerebral blood flow (CBF), both of ...

Tight Junctions of the Neurovascular Unit [PDF]
Frontiers in Molecular Neuroscience, 2021 The homeostatic balance of the brain and retina is maintained by the presence of the blood-brain and inner blood-retinal barrier (BBB/iBRB, respectively) which are highly specialized barriers. Endothelial cells forming the lining of these blood vessels are interconnected by the presence of tight junctions which form the BBB and iBRB.

The neurovascular unit in leukodystrophies: towards solving the puzzle [PDF]
Fluids and Barriers of the CNS, 2022 AbstractThe neurovascular unit (NVU) is a highly organized multicellular system localized in the brain, formed by neuronal, glial (astrocytes, oligodendrocytes, and microglia) and vascular (endothelial cells and pericytes) cells. The blood–brain barrier, a complex and dynamic endothelial cell barrier in the brain microvasculature that separates the ...

Estrogen modulation of cortical spreading depression
The Journal of Headache and Pain, 2023 Background and aims Cortical spreading depression (CSD), a transient neuronal and glial depolarization that propagates slowly across the cerebral cortex, is the putative electrophysiological event underlying migraine aura and a headache trigger. Migraine

Investigation of Phosphatidylserine-Transporting Activity of Human TMEM16C Isoforms
Membranes, 2022 Lipid scrambling is a rapid process that dissipates the asymmetrical distribution of phospholipids in the plasma membrane. It is involved in various physiological functions such as blood coagulation and apoptosis.

The Neurovascular Unit in Glaucomatous Neurodegeneration [PDF]
Frontiers in Cell and Developmental Biology, 2020 Glaucoma is a neurodegenerative disease of the visual system and leading cause of blindness worldwide. The disease is associated with sensitivity to intraocular pressure (IOP), which over a large range of magnitudes stresses retinal ganglion cell (RGC) axons as they pass through the optic nerve head in forming the optic projection to the brain. Despite
