Brain endothelial cells are exquisite sensors of age-related circulatory cues
2019-04-24
Abstract excerpt
<h4>SUMMARY</h4> Brain endothelial cells (BECs) are key elements of the blood-brain barrier (BBB), protecting the brain from pathogens and restricting access to circulatory factors. Recent studies have demonstrated that the circulatory environment can modulate brain aging, yet, the underlying processes remain largely unknown. Given the BBB’s intermediary position, we hypothesized that BECs sense, adapt to, and re...
