The study (“Blood–brain-barrier-crossing lipid nanoparticles for mRNA delivery to the central nervous system”) in mouse models and isolated human brain tissue was published in the online ...

Bottlebrush Barrier. The glycocalyx layer (purple, left) that coats brain blood vessels consists of numerous glycoproteins, glycolipids, and proteoglycans (right), including the bottlebrush-shaped ...

The findings, in mouse models and isolated human brain tissue, were published in Nature Materials ("Blood–brain-barrier-crossing lipid nanoparticles for mRNA delivery to the central nervous system").

A protein that functions as a cannabinoid receptor within the blood-brain barrier may influence why some individuals develop anxiety and depression under chronic stress while others remain resilient.

A study by Yale University involving over 37,000 adults suggests that parenting can improve brain health and slow down aging. Parent brains show neural patterns that do not follow typical aging ...
