blood brain barrier (bbb) is a specialized non fenestrate barrier that formation by the endothelial cells and controls the transportation of the cells and molecules in to the brain. reducing in function of bbb is one of disruptions in neurological diseases like multiple sclerosis. endothelial progenitor cell (epc) help to the bbb to control the diapedesis of inflammatory cells & molecules in to...

Introduction: Left and right BBB (LBBB and RBBB) represent an independent predictor of poor outcome in AMI. Objective: To assess the incidence, clinical meaning and evolution of patients with BBB, left and right and AMI. Material and Methods: Retrospective study included 1020 patients with AMI, from which 104 (10,2%) associated BBB at onset, respectively: 62 cases (59%) AMI and left BBB and 42 ...

There is an ongoing effort to develop in vitro models for the blood-brain barrier (BBB) research and the central nervous system (CNS) drug screening. But the phenotypes of the existing in vitro models are still very remote from those found in vivo. The trouble in establishing in vitro BBB models comes from the unclear mechanism of the BBB formation and maintenance. The astrocytes have been foun...

This study synthesized resveratrol oligosaccharides (gluco oligosaccharides) by two-step enzymatic glycosylation, using glucosyltransferase from Phytolacca americana and cyclodextrin glucanotransferase. Although hardly crosses the blood–brain barrier (BBB) in mouse brain, incorporated into brain tissue crossed BBB. Our indicated that modified with might have gained a BBB-crossing ability. Furth...

The blood-brain barrier (BBB) keeps neurotoxic plasma-derived components, cells, and pathogens out of the brain. An early BBB breakdown and/or dysfunction have been shown in Alzheimer's disease (AD) before dementia, neurodegeneration and/or brain atrophy occur. However, the role of BBB breakdown in neurodegenerative disorders is still not fully understood. Here, we examine BBB breakdown in anim...

The blood-brain barrier (BBB) is a multifaceted property of the brain vasculature that protects the brain and maintains homeostasis by tightly regulating the flux of ions, molecules, and cells across the vasculature. Blood vessels in the brain are formed by endothelial cells that acquire barrier properties, such as tight and adherens junctions, soon after the brain vasculature is formed. Endoth...
