BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Cerebral amyloid angiopathy (CAA) is a degenerative disorder characterized by amyloid-β (Aβ) deposition in the blood-brain barrier (BBB). CAA contributes to injuries of the neurovasculature including lobar hemorrhages, cortical microbleeds, ischemia, and superficial hemosiderosis. We postulate that CAA pathology is partially due to Aβ compromising the BBB. METHODS We ch...
Individuals with homozygous deficiency in cystathionine-beta-synthase (CBS) develop high levels of homocysteine in plasma, a condition known as homocysteinuria. Mental retardation ensues with death in teens; the heterozygous live normally but develop vascular dementia and Alzheimer's disease (AD) in later part of life. The treatment with muscimol, a gamma amino butyric acid receptor-A (GABA(A))...
A number of studies report that a diet high in protein influences cognitive performance, but the results are inconsistent. Studies demonstrated that protein from different food sources has differential effects on cognition. It is increasingly recognized that the integrity of cerebrovascular blood-brain barrier (BBB) is pivotal for central nervous system function. However, to date, no studies ha...
Protection against hypoxia-induced blood-brain barrier disruption: changes in intracellular calcium.
Tissue damage after stroke is partly due to disruption of the blood-brain barrier (BBB). Little is known about the role of calcium in modulating BBB disruption. We investigated the effect of hypoxic and aglycemic stress on BBB function and intracellular calcium levels. Bovine brain microvessel endothelial cells were treated with A-23187 to increase intracellular calcium without hypoxia or treat...
The function of the blood-brain barrier (BBB) depends on the integrity of tight junction (TJ)-associated proteins. Netrin-1 is known to promote angiogenesis and may also regulate the BBB. To understand the association between netrin-1 and the TJ-associated proteins, the expression levels of proteins involved in maintaining the integrity of the BBB, including netrin-1, claudin-5, occludin and zo...
Previously, we reported a defect in the blood-brain barrier (BBB) of apolipoprotein E-deficient (apoE-/-) mice (24). Here, we investigate BBB permeability in wild-type (WT) and apoE-/- mice as a function of age. Both WT and apoE-/- mice showed significantly increased cortical BBB leakage with age. However, in apoE-/- mice, the leakage increased at a 3.7 x higher rate compared with WT mice. Surp...
membrane permeability and p-glycoprotein (p-gp) efflux system are regulating factors in the drug brain penetration. recently, some drug delivery systems have been developed to overcome these limitations. in this study, metoclopramid has been encapsulated in plga nanoparticles using the emulsification/solvent evaporation technique for in vitro evaluation of the effect of plga nanoparticles on bb...
This study demonstrates the changes in six different pathophysiological parameters such as body weight, body temperature, fecal pellet count, blood-brain barrier (BBB) permeability, plasma corticosterone level and emergence of hemorrhagic peptic ulcer spots due to exposure to high environmental heat in three different age groups of freely moving rats. Methods: Each age group of rats was sub di...
Utsumi, Hiroyuki, Hideki Chiba, Yasuhiro Kamimura, Makoto Osanai, Yo Igarashi, Hirotoshi Tobioka, Michio Mori, and Norimasa Sawada. Expression of GFRa-1, receptor for GDNF, in rat brain capillary during postnatal development of the BBB. Am J Physiol Cell Physiol 279: C361–C368, 2000.—It is well known that the bloodbrain barrier (BBB) matures at ;2 wk after birth in the rat. Recently, we showed ...
There is substantial evidence linking blood-brain barrier (BBB) failure during cerebral ischemia to matrix metalloproteinases (MMP). BBB function may be affected by loss of shear stress under normoxia/normoglycemia, as during cardiopulmonary bypass procedures. The present study used an in vitro flow-perfused BBB model to analyze the individual contributions of flow, cytokine levels, and circula...
