Abstract

Representative in vitro blood-brain barrier (BBB) models can support the development of strategies to efficiently deliver therapeutic drugs to the brain by aiding the characterization of their internalization, trafficking, and subsequent transport across the BBB. A collagen type I (COL1) hydrogel-based in vitro BBB model was developed to enable the simultaneous characterization of drug transport and intracellular processing using confocal microscopy, in a way that traditional insert-based in vitro BBB models cannot. Human induced pluripotent stem cells (hiPSCs) were differentiated into cells that exhibited a BBB-like phenotype on COL1 hydrogels, which included the expression of key BBB-specific proteins and low permeability of representative small and large molecule therapeutics. Furthermore, the BBB phenotype observed on the COL1 hydrogel was similar to that previously reported on porous inserts. The intracellular visualization of two small molecule efflux pump substrates within the hiPSC-derived BBB-like cells demonstrated a difference in cytosolic and vesicular accumulation, which complemented permeability measurements demonstrating a difference in transport rate. The easy-to-construct COL1-based hiPSC-derived BBB model pres...Continue Reading

Blood Brain Barrier

The blood brain barrier is a border that separates blood from cerebrospinal fluid. Discover the latest search on this highly selective semipermeable membrane here.

Antimicrobial Resistance

Antimicrobial resistance poses a significant threat to the continued successful use of antimicrobial agents for the treatment of bacterial infections.

Antimicrobial Resistance (ASM)

Antimicrobial resistance poses a significant threat to the continued successful use of antimicrobial agents for the treatment of bacterial infections.

Blood Brain Barrier Regulation in Health & Disease

The blood brain barrier is essential in regulating the movement of molecules and substances in and out of the brain. Disruption to the blood brain barrier and changes in permeability allow pathogens and inflammatory molecules to cross the barrier and may play a part in the pathogenesis of neurodegenerative disorders. Here is the latest research in this field.

Blood Brain Barrier Chips

The blood brain barrier (BBB) is comprised of endothelial cells that regulate the influx and outflux of plasma concentrations. Lab-on-a-chip devices allow scientists to model diseases and mechanisms such as the passage of therapeutic antibodies across the BBB. Discover the latest research on BBB chips here.
