2024-04-30
Abstract excerpt
<h4>ABSTRACT</h4> The blood-brain barrier (BBB) is essential to maintain brain homeostasis and healthy conditions but it also prevents drugs from reaching brain cells. In the BBB, tight junctions (TJs) are multi-protein complexes located at the interface between adjacent brain endothelial cells that regulate paracellular diffusion and claudin-5 (CLDN5) is the major component of the TJ portfolio, playing a pivotal...
