What is Understanding the Blood-Brain Barrier about?
The blood-brain barrier (BBB) is a protective system formed by brain microvascular endothelial cells that regulates nutrient supply and filters harmful substances in the brain. Its restricted permeability poses challenges for delivering therapeutic agents to the central nervous system, and dysfunction of the BBB is linked to various CNS diseases. Understanding the regulation of tight junctions and transport systems may lead to improved treatments for maintaining BBB integrity in health and disease.
