Background and Purpose Adenosine as a signalling molecule modifies blood–brain barrier (BBB) tightness in pathological conditions. Our aim was to investigate the direct and polarized effects of adenosine on the BBB using co‐culture and in vivo models. Experimental Approach The expression of adenosine receptors was measured by qRT‐PCR.

Brain Serotonin Transporter Is Elevated in Obesity: Bayesian and Frequentist Meta‐Analyses
ABSTRACT Aims The brain plays a critical role in controlling energy balance. Previous studies have mainly focused on dopaminergic mechanisms, whereas much less attention has been paid to serotonin during the emergence of overweight and obesity. Therefore, this study investigated the association between serotonin transporter (SERT) availability and ...

Abstract Cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) contributes to brain waste clearance through its coupling with cerebral haemodynamics. Aerobic exercise promotes brain health, but its influence on brain waste clearance remains unclear. This study examined the coupling between CSF and cerebral haemodynamics in endurance athletes. Fifteen young male endurance athletes
