Strategies for blood-brain barrier rejuvenation and repair

3 weeks 5 days ago
Blood-brain barrier (BBB) dysfunction is a hallmark of many diseases of the brain, including those that represent the largest healthcare burden (for example, Alzheimer disease and stroke). Despite this, rejuvenation and repair of the BBB is not a mainstream concept. During life, the BBB is subjected to perturbations and stresses from a wide range of endogenous or exogenous sources, which can promote brain health or can lead to brain pathologies. The BBB supports many functions that are critical...

Intestinal macrophages modulate synucleinopathy along the gut-brain axis

3 weeks 5 days ago
Emerging evidence suggests that Parkinson's disease (PD) may have its origin in the enteric nervous system (ENS), from where α-synuclein (αS) pathology spreads to the brain^(1-4). Decades before the onset of motor symptoms, patients with PD suffer from constipation and present with circulating T cells responsive to αS, suggesting that peripheral immune responses initiated in the ENS may be involved in the early stages of PD^(1,5-7). However, cellular mechanisms that trigger αS pathology in the...
