Learn how nanoparticles cross the blood-brain barrier (BBB) and explore their potential in treating neurological disorders ...

A new study by researchers from Marshall University and the University of Missouri highlights how exosomes—tiny vesicles ...

The blood–brain barrier acts as a strict control point for what can enter the brain, and is created by tight junctions between endothelial cells lining blood vessels, astroyctic endfeet and a ...

In an early-stage clinical trial, the therapy nearly doubled the expected survival time of young patients. Still, experts ...

Researchers led by CHLA’s Jonathan D. Santoro, MD, have identified signs of neuroinflammation and dysfunction of the ...

These cells lining the inside of your brain's blood vessels are tightly packed together, forming your blood-brain barrier.

The blood-brain barrier weakens during normal aging and in neurodegenerative disease, but the reasons are not fully understood. In the February 26 Nature, scientists led by Tony Wyss-Coray and Carolyn ...

Berubicin showed clinically relevant outcomes comparable to Lomustine across multiple endpoints, but not a statistically ...

In a study in aging mice, Shi has uncovered striking age-related changes in the sugary coating—called the glycocalyx—on cells that form the blood-brain barrier, a structure that protects the ...

Slippery proteins in the brain’s blood vessels form a protective barrier that breaks down with age, studies in mice show. A slimy barrier lining the brain’s blood vessels could hold the key to ...

As we age, things don’t quite work the way they used to. Now Stanford researchers have identified how the breakdown of a sugary layer in the blood vessels that feed the brain could result in ...

A new study by researchers from Marshall University and the University of Missouri highlights how exosomes—tiny vesicles released by cells—may play a key role in blood-brain barrier (BBB) dysfunction ...
