Hypoxia dramatically increases the nonspecific transport of blood-borne proteins to the brain

Abstract

Increased cerebrovascular permeability is an important factor for the development of cerebral edema. To investigate the effect of hypoxia on the transport of blood-borne proteins to the brain, we used a cell culture model of the blood-brain barrier (BBB) consisting of a coculture of brain capillary endothelial cells and astrocytes that closely mimics the in vivo situation. The permeability of albumin, a marker of the nonspecific transcellular route, is extremely low in this in vitro model of the BBB. After hypoxia, a huge increase in the permeability of albumin is detected. Despite the opening of the tight junctions already demonstrated after hypoxia, the increase in the permeability of albumin is mainly attributed to an increase of the non-specific vesicular transport in the cell, attested by the temperature dependence of the phenomenon and the visualization of labeled apotransferrin in the cytoplasm. The increase of this pathway could participate in the development of brain edema during hypoxia.

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.

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.

Astrocytes

Astrocytes are glial cells that support the blood-brain barrier, facilitate neurotransmission, provide nutrients to neurons, and help repair damaged nervous tissues. Here is the latest research.
