Journal ArticleDOI
Passage of Cytokines across the Blood-Brain Barrier
TL;DR: Evidence shows that passage of cytokines across the blood-brain barrier occurs, providing a route by which blood-borne cytokines could potentially affect brain function.
Journal ArticleDOI
Avenues for entry of peripherally administered protein to the central nervous system in mouse, rat, and squirrel monkey.
TL;DR: The extracellular pathways through which probe molecules enter the mammalian brain offer potential routes of passage for blood‐borne and airborne toxic, carcinogenic, infectious, and neurotoxic agents and addictive drugs, and for the delivery of chemotherapeutic agents to combat CNS infections and deficiency states.
Journal ArticleDOI
Serum proteins bypass the blood-brain fluid barriers for extracellular entry to the central nervous system.
TL;DR: The results suggest blood-borne macromolecules, including those of the immune and complement systems, have potential widespread, extracellular distribution within the CNS and cerebrospinal fluid from sites deficient in a BBB.
Journal ArticleDOI
Cytochemical identification of cerebral glycogen and glucose‐6‐phosphatase activity under normal and experimental conditions: I. Neurons and glia
TL;DR: Results indicate that within neurons and glia of the adult CNS cytochemical stains are well suited for ultrastructural identification of glycogen and localization of G6Pase activity.
Journal ArticleDOI
Cytochemical identification of cerebral glycogen and glucose-6-phosphatase activity under normal and experimental conditions. II. Choroid plexus and ependymal epithelia, endothelia and pericytes.
TL;DR: The results indicate that glycogen and G6Pase activity are prevalent within non-neural cells of the adult mammalian CNS and may be altered by stressful conditions that influence the functional activity of this cell.
