Computational Nanoscopy of Tight Junctions at the Blood–Brain Barrier Interface
The selectivity of the blood−brain barrier (BBB) is primarily maintained by tight junctions (TJs), which act as gatekeepers of the paracellular space by blocking blood-borne toxins, drugs, and pathogens from entering the brain. The BBB presents a significant challenge in designing neurothe...
