Alterations in Blood-Brain Barrier Function Following Acute Hypertension: Comparison of the Blood-to-Brain Transfer of Horseradish Peroxidase with That of Alpha-Aminoisobutyric Acid
The blood-brain barrier (BBB) selectively restricts the blood-to-brain passage of many solutes owing to unique properties of cerebrovascular endothelial cell membranes. This selective blood/brain interface participates in the maintenance of brain homeostasis by controlling nutrient, gas, and fluid e...
