Solute Transfer Across Blood-Brain Barrier
Description
This template shows six mechanisms by which solutes cross the blood-brain barrier, including lipophilic diffusion, paracellular transport through tight junctions, receptor-mediated transcytosis, transport protein-mediated movement, solute carrier protein influx, and adsorptive-mediated transcytosis. An inset diagram identifies the pericyte, endothelial cell, and astrocyte components that make up the barrier.
