Disruption of Bmal1 Impairs Blood–Brain Barrier Integrity via Pericyte Dysfunction
14 Sept 2017
Abstract excerpt
Circadian rhythm disturbances are well established in neurological diseases. However, how these disruptions cause homeostatic imbalances remains poorly understood. Brain and muscle aryl hydrocarbon receptor nuclear translocator-like protein 1 (Bmal1) is a major circadian clock transcriptional activator, and Bmal1 deficiency in male Bmal1 nestin −/− mice induced marked astroglial activation without affecting the...
