Effects of Fullerenols on Mouse Brain Microvascular Endothelial Cells
Fullerenols, water-soluble C60-fullerene derivatives, have been shown to exert neuroprotective effects in vitro and in vivo, most likely due to their capability to scavenge free radicals. However, little is known about the effects of fullerenols on the blood-brain barrier (BBB), especially on cerebral endothelial cells under inflammatory conditions. Here, we investigated whether the treatment o...
متن کاملIdentification of Escherichia coli outer membrane protein A receptor on human brain microvascular endothelial cells.
Neonatal Escherichia coli meningitis continues to be a diagnostic and treatment challenge despite the availability of active antibiotics. Our earlier studies have shown that outer membrane protein A (OmpA) is one of the major factors responsible for Escherichia coli traversal across the blood-brain barrier that constitutes a lining of brain microvascular endothelial cells (BMEC). In this study ...
متن کاملEscherichia coli K1 RS218 interacts with human brain microvascular endothelial cells via type 1 fimbria bacteria in the fimbriated state.
Escherichia coli K1 is a major gram-negative organism causing neonatal meningitis. E. coli K1 binding to and invasion of human brain microvascular endothelial cells (HBMEC) are a prerequisite for E. coli penetration into the central nervous system in vivo. In the present study, we showed using DNA microarray analysis that E. coli K1 associated with HBMEC expressed significantly higher levels of...
متن کاملShear Stress Inhibits Apoptosis of Ischemic Brain Microvascular Endothelial Cells
As a therapeutic strategy for ischemic stroke, to restore or increase cerebral blood flow (CBF) is the most fundamental option. Laminar shear stress (LS), as an important force generated by CBF, mainly acts on brain microvascular endothelial cells (BMECs). In order to study whether LS was a protective factor in stroke, we investigated LS-intervented ischemic apoptosis of rat BMECs (rBMECs) thro...
متن کاملIsolation of Primary Murine Brain Microvascular Endothelial Cells
The blood-brain-barrier is ultrastructurally assembled by a monolayer of brain microvascular endothelial cells (BMEC) interconnected by a junctional complex of tight and adherens junctions. Together with other cell-types such as astrocytes or pericytes, they form the neurovascular unit (NVU), which specifically regulates the interchange of fluids, molecules and cells between the peripheral bloo...
