Tight Junctions of the Neurovascular Unit [PDF]
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]
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 ...

Investigation of Phosphatidylserine-Transporting Activity of Human TMEM16C Isoforms
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.

Estrogen modulation of cortical spreading depression
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

The Neurovascular Unit Dysfunction in Alzheimer’s Disease [PDF]
Alzheimer’s disease (AD) is the most common neurodegenerative disease worldwide. Histopathologically, AD presents with two hallmarks: neurofibrillary tangles (NFTs), and aggregates of amyloid β peptide (Aβ) both in the brain parenchyma as neuritic plaques, and around blood vessels as cerebral amyloid angiopathy (CAA).

Aging and the neurovascular unit [PDF]
With the demonstration that acute recanalization of obstructed symptomatic cerebral arteries during ischemic stroke can result in substantial improvement in clinical outcome, the variability in clinical responses, and in hemorrhagic transformation, requires attention.

The Neurovascular Unit in Glaucomatous Neurodegeneration [PDF]
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

Injury and repair in the neurovascular unit [PDF]
The neurovascular unit provides a conceptual framework for investigating the pathophysiology of how brain cells die after stroke, brain injury, and neurodegeneration. Emerging data now suggest that this concept can be further extended. Cell-cell signaling between neuronal, glial, and vascular elements in the brain not only mediates the mechanisms of ...
