  2. 2. Pericyte Influence on Drug Delivery Across the Blood-Brain Barrier : Implications for Therapy of Neurodegenerative Diseases

    Författare :Nebojsa Mihajlica; Margareta Hammarlund-Udenaes; Christer Betsholtz; William Elmquist; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Blood-brain barrier; pericytes; pericyte-deficiency; pharmacokinetics; small-molecular drugs; drug distribution; transporters; P-glycoprotein; tyrosine kinase inhibitors; Farmakokinetik och läkemedelsterapi; Pharmacokinetics and Drug Therapy;

    Sammanfattning : The blood-brain barrier (BBB) represents a complex interface between the brain parenchyma and systemic blood circulation, strictly controlling exchange of substances between the two sites. Pericytes are mural cells located on the abluminal membrane of the brain endothelium, involved in BBB formation and maintenance. LÄS MER
