Deltorphin transport across the blood-brain barrier.
In vivo antinociception studies demonstrate that deltorphins are opioid peptides with an unusually high blood-brain barrier penetration rate. In vitro, isolated bovine brain microvessels can take up deltorphins through a saturable nonconcentrative permeation system, which is apparently distinct from previously described systems involved in the transport of neutral amino acids or of enkephalins....
متن کاملCopper transport to the brain by the blood-brain barrier and blood-CSF barrier.
The mechanism of copper (Cu) transport into the brain is unclear. This study evaluated the main species and route of Cu transport into the brain using in situ brain perfusion technique, and assessed the levels of mRNA encoding Cu transporters using real time RT-PCR. Free (64)Cu uptake in rat choroid plexus (CP), where the blood-cerebrospinal fluid barrier (BCB) is primarily located, is about 50...
متن کاملBrain bioavailability of human intravenous immunoglobulin and its transport through the murine blood-brain barrier.
Intravenous immunoglobulin (IVIg) is currently evaluated in clinical trials for the treatment of various disorders of the central nervous system. To assess its capacity to reach central therapeutic targets, the brain bioavailability of IVIg must be determined. We thus quantified the passage of IVIg through the blood-brain barrier (BBB) of C57Bl/6 mice using complementary quantitative and qualit...
متن کاملThe blood-brain barrier. Transport across the cerebral endothelium.
THE ORIGINAL idea of a blood-brain barrier arose at the turn of the century as an explanation of the properties of the living brain in relation to certain dyes and pharmacologically active compounds, injected either into the bloodstream or directly into the cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) of experimental animals (reviewed by Bradbury, 1979). This developed into the general concept of a cellular barri...
متن کاملTransport across the blood-brain barrier of pluronic leptin.
Leptin is a peptide hormone produced primarily by adipose tissue that acts as a major regulator of food intake and energy homeostasis. Impaired transport of leptin across the blood-brain barrier (BBB) contributes to leptin resistance, which is a cause of obesity. Leptin as a candidate for the treatment of this obesity is limited because of the short half-life in circulation and the decreased BB...
