THE CELL BIOLOGY OF THE BLOOD-BRAIN BARRIER

Rubin, L. L., Staddon, J. M.·1999·Annual Review of Neuroscience

Abstract

▪ Abstract The blood-brain barrier (BBB) is formed by brain capillary endothelial cells (ECs). In the late embryonic and early postnatal period, these cells respond to inducing factors found in the brain environment by adopting a set of defined characteristics, including high-electrical-resistance tight junctions. Although the factors have not been identified definitively, a great deal of information about brain ECs has been obtained, especially recently. This review concentrates on a cell biological analysis of the BBB, with an emphasis on regulation of the specialized intercellular junctions. The development of these junctions seems to depend on two primary processes: the appearance of high levels of the tight junction protein occludin and intracellular signaling processes that control the state of phosphorylation of junctional proteins. Recent studies have revealed that the BBB can be modulated in an ongoing way to respond to environmental stimuli.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
