The insulin receptor (INSR) mediates insulin signaling to modulate cellular functions. Although INSR is expressed at the blood-brain barrier (BBB), its role in the modulation of BBB function is poorly understood. Therefore, in this study, we aimed to analyze the effect of INSR knockdown on the expre...

The blood-brain barrier (BBB) is essential for central nervous system homeostasis, but most current in vitro models lack structural and functional fidelity. We developed a physiologically relevant human neurovascular unit microfluidic chip (hNVU-on-a-chip) incorporating brain microvascular endoth...

A key step in angiogenesis is the upregulation of growth factor receptors on endothelial cells. Here we demonstrate that a small regulatory microRNA, miR-296 has a major role in this process. Glioma cells and angiogenic growth factors elevate the level of miR-296 in primary human brain microvascular...

To investigate the mRNA expression after extracellular vesicles or miRNA treatement, global gene expression analysis was performed in endothelial cells after the transfection of N.C. or miR-181c and or after the addition of extracellular vesicles from cancer cells. mRNA expression in brain endotheli...

Amino acid transporters are expressed in the brain capillary endothelial cells, which form the blood-brain barrier, and their expression levels change during the neonatal period. This study aimed to investigate the molecular mechanisms regulating the amino acid transporter levels in mouse brain capi...

Neurons and endothelial cells were identified by immunohistochemistry in human brains, isolated by laser-capture-microdissection and used to find genes preferentially expressed in the two cell types. Keywords: cell type comparison Laser capture microdissection was used to isolate approximately 1000...

The purpose of the present study was, therefore, to explore the effect of PODXL-knockdown on the protein expression and transport function in the immortalized human BMECs (hCMEC/D3) as a human BBB model. We established PODXL-knockdown hCMEC/D3 cells, and protein expressions were comprehensively anal...

Premature infants require oxygen supplementation to survive, but excess oxygen causes retinovascular growth suppression that underlies the leading cause of infant blindness known as retinopathy of prematurity (ROP). We analyzed changes in intermediary metabolism during hyperoxia in human retinal end...

Induced pluripotent stem cells were differentiated to brain microvascular endothelial cells (BMECs) using previously published protocols with minor changes. RNA was collected from purified BMECs after barrier induction and submitted for sequencing.

The aim of the present work was to investigate the effect of monensin on the in vitro growth of T. gondii tachyzoites and on the host cells (human brain microvascular endothelial cells - hBMECs). The hypotheses were that (1) inhibition of the WNT signalling pathway by monensin can reduce the growth ...
