CD146 coordinates brain endothelial cell-pericyte communication for blood-brain barrier development.
The blood-brain barrier (BBB) establishes a protective interface between the central neuronal system and peripheral blood circulation and is crucial for homeostasis of the CNS. BBB formation starts when the endothelial cells (ECs) invade the CNS and pericytes are recruited to the nascent vessels during embryogenesis. Despite the essential function of pericyte-EC interaction during BBB developme...
متن کاملThe Mouse Blood-Brain Barrier Transcriptome: A New Resource for Understanding the Development and Function of Brain Endothelial Cells
The blood-brain barrier (BBB) maintains brain homeostasis and limits the entry of toxins and pathogens into the brain. Despite its importance, little is known about the molecular mechanisms regulating the development and function of this crucial barrier. In this study we have developed methods to highly purify and gene profile endothelial cells from different tissues, and by comparing the trans...
متن کاملCD144, CD146 and VEGFR-2 properly identify circulating endothelial cell
UNLABELLED Studies evaluating circulating endothelial cells by flow cytometry are faced by a lack of consensus about the best combination of monoclonal antibodies to be used. The rarity of these cells in peripheral blood, which represent 0.01% of mononuclear cells, drastically increases this challenge. OBJECTIVE The aim of this study is to suggest some combinations of markers that would safel...
متن کاملRegulation of blood-brain barrier endothelial cells by nitric oxide.
Nitric oxide (NO) synthesized by vascular endothelial cells is a potent vasodilator substance. The actions of NO extend well beyond its vasodilatory properties, and increasingly, NO has been recognized as an important signal for intercellular and intracellular communication. Recently, NO has been implicated in the regulation of vascular and blood-brain barrier permeability. NO has also been sho...
متن کاملEndothelial tight junctions form the blood–brain barrier
he concept of a barrier between blood vessels and the brain and spinal cord had existed since the late 1800s, when immunologist Paul Ehrlich found that intravenously administered dyes failed to stain certain regions of the brain, whereas other body tissues were stained. Ehrlich thought the dyes did not have a staining affinity for the brain, but his student, Edwin Goldman, showed that the dyes ...
