Mechanisms controlling the unique phenotype of brain endothelium

2009-01-01

Abstract excerpt

Endothelial cells from different tissues differ widely in the expression of junctional proteins like occludin and transporters like the transferrin receptor. The mechanism(s) responsible for the differential expression of these proteins is not known. In this project we have studied how the occludin promoter interacts with nuclear transcription factors (TFs) from brain and non-brain endothelium. EMSA data indicates...
