1 BLOOD-BRAIN BARRIER MODELS IN CHIP DEVICES Mária A. Deli Institute of Biophysics, Biological Research Centre Hungarian Academy of Sciences, Szeged, Hungary Centre of Excellence of the European Union
2 WHAT IS THE BLOOD-BRAIN BARRIER? Brain capillaries length: 650 km (Budapest Adriatic sea) surface: m 2 Roles creates homeostasis for neuronal functions provides brain with nutrients defense system against toxic insults communication: periphery CNS
3 WHY THE BLOOD-BRAIN BARRIER IS IMPORTANT? Drug delivery to the brain Limited brain entry water soluble molecules, biotherapeutics, efflux ligands chemotherapeutics, antiepileptics, antibiotics Difficult to treat neurological diseases Diseases affect the BBB Systemic diseases alcoholism, diabetes infectious diseases: NeuroAIDS Neurological diseases neurodegenerative diseases: Alzheimer s disease epilepsy, brain tumors, stroke traumatic brain & spinal cord injury How to study?
4 MODELS TO STUDY THE BLOOD-BRAIN BARRIER Animal studies Experiments with dyes Paul Ehrlich - alizarin blue-s Electron microscopy 1967 Reese and Karnovsky: Tight junctions (TJ) BEC P Resistance measurement of brain vessels 1982 Crone and Olesen: 1870 Ω L TJ Deli MA et al.
