...The potent effects of molecules produced by activated perivascular glial cells on the permeability of the BBB and the process of lymphocyte migration (see later section), coupled with the enhanced capacity of activated perivascular microglia and pericytes to serve as phagocytic and professional antigen presenting cells (Balabanov et al., 1999; Balabanov and Dore-Duffy, 1998; Hickey and Kimura, 1988) emphasize the dynamic nature of the properties of the perivascular glial cells that contribute to carrying immunological signals from one side of the BBB to the other....

...Although both neural antigen-specific and nonspecific T cells can enter the brain, only those that recognize their specific antigen presented by a competent antigen presenting cell (APC) would persist and initiate an inflammatory reaction (Krakowski and Owens, 2000; Hickey et al., 1991)....

...However, studies with ova-albumin–reactive T cells show that although non-CNS reactive T cells also cross the BBB, these cells exit rapidly from the CNS compartment (Hickey et al., 1991), indicating that antigen recognition is required for cell persistence....
