Brain blood barrier defects and ferric-iron brain accumulation as cause of gradually neurodegenerative brain disease
As a main aim we want to focus on the sources of oxidants as key factors in understanding the role oxidants play in the pathogenesis of brain vascular endothelial dysfunction. The question remains whether iron inversion and subsequent radical formation is a primary or secondary event in neurodegenerative disease. Recent research suggests that iron inversion is an initial cause of neuronal cell ...
متن کاملP27: KCNK2 and Adhesion Molecules in an in-Vitro Blood Brain Barrier Model
Two-pore domain potassium channels, like KCNK2, are known to play an important role in inflammatory diseases such as multiple sclerosis (MS). Upregulation of cellular adhesion molecules in mouse brain microvascular endothelial cells (MBMECs) of Kcnk2-/- mice resulted in elevated leukocyte trafficking into the central nervous system under inflammatory conditions. The current project aims to gain...
متن کاملBlood–brain barrier opening to large molecules does not imply blood–brain barrier opening to small ions
Neuroimaging of exogenous tracer extravasation has become the technique of choice in preclinical and clinical studies of blood-brain barrier permeability. Such tracers have a larger molecular weight than small ions, neurotransmitters and many drugs. Therefore, it is assumed that tracer extravasation indicates both permeability to these and the cancelation of the electrical polarization across t...
متن کاملNeurodegeneration with brain iron accumulation.
Neurodegeneration with brain iron accumulation (NBIA) describes a group of progressive extrapyramidal disorders with radiographic evidence of focal iron accumulation in the brain, usually in the basal ganglia. Patients previously diagnosed with Hallervorden-Spatz syndrome fall into this category. Mutations in the PANK2 gene account for the majority of NBIA cases and cause an autosomal recessive...
متن کاملBlood Brain Barrier Permeation
The large surface area and the short diffusion distance from capillaries of the blood brain barrier (BBB) to the neurons facilitate the drugs and nutrients access to the brain. Penetration of chemicals to the BBB occurs using a combination of intra and intercellular passages. Tight junctions regulate the intracellular passage of molecules according to their physicochemical properties (e.g. lipo...
