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...

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...

Tight homeostatic control of brain amino acids (AA) depends on transport via solute family carrier proteins expressed by the Blood-Brain Barrier (BBB) microvascular endothelial cells (BMEC). To characterize the mouse BMEC transcriptome and probe culture-induced changes microarray analyses of PECAM-1...

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.

Introduction: The gut microbiota and its metabolites are implicated in atherosclerosis, but the specific effector molecules and their pathophysiological significance remain unclear.

Objectives: This study aimed to identify key atheroprotective microbial metabolites and to elucidate the mech...

Fasting is increasingly recognized as a potential therapeutic intervention in the field of neurology and psychiatry. However, its impact upon the blood-brain barrier (BBB), which strictly regulates the cerebral uptake of a wide range of endogenous compounds and drugs, is unknown. In this study we us...

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...
