Abstract
The blooda??brain barrier (BBB), formed by
the endothelial cells lining the cerebral microvasculature,
was once thought to act as a simple
physical barrier protecting the brain parenchyma
from blood-borne agents. However, with
the revitalization of cerebral vascular research,
it is becoming more recognized that the BBB is
a dynamic interface that plays a critical role in
communication between the sensitive CNS and
the periphery.
