Gradual Suppression of Transcytosis Governs Functional Blood-Retinal Barrier Formation
نویسندگان
چکیده
Blood-central nervous system (CNS) barriers partition neural tissues from the blood, providing a homeostatic environment for proper neural function. The endothelial cells that form blood-CNS barriers have specialized tight junctions and low rates of transcytosis to limit the flux of substances between blood and CNS. However, the relative contributions of these properties to CNS barrier permeability are unknown. Here, by studying functional blood-retinal barrier (BRB) formation in mice, we found that immature vessel leakage occurs entirely through transcytosis, as specialized tight junctions are functional as early as vessel entry into the CNS. A functional barrier forms only when transcytosis is gradually suppressed during development. Mutant mice with elevated or reduced levels of transcytosis have delayed or precocious sealing of the BRB, respectively. Therefore, the temporal regulation of transcytosis governs the development of a functional BRB, and suppression of transcytosis is a principal contributor for functional barrier formation.

Blood-Brain Barrier Permeability Is Regulated by Lipid Transport-Dependent Suppression of Caveolae-Mediated Transcytosis.
The blood-brain barrier (BBB) provides a constant homeostatic brain environment that is essential for proper neural function. An unusually low rate of vesicular transport (transcytosis) has been identified as one of the two unique properties of CNS endothelial cells, relative to peripheral endothelial cells, that maintain the restrictive quality of the BBB. However, it is not known how this low...

متن کاملDifferential regulation of tight junction permeability during development of the retinal pigment epithelium.
The retinal pigment epithelium (RPE) is an epithelial region of the blood-brain barrier. During embryogenesis, permeability of the barrier gradually decreases. A culture model of RPE development revealed differences in how tight junctions regulate the paracellular diffusion of ionic and nonionic solutes (Ban Y and Rizzolo LJ. Mol Vis 3: 18, 1997). To examine these differences, the permeation of...
