A rapid blood test could speed treatment for people who have suffered a stroke related to brain bleeding, a new study says. Stroke victims with brain bleeds have nearly seven times higher blood ...

The blood-brain barrier (BBB) performs this vital function, but it can become “leaky.” Now, scientists at Stanford have identified therapeutic molecules that could help patch it up ...

The brain is among the most “immune-privileged” of organs primarily through the highly selective permeability of the blood-brain-barrier (BBB), its minimal lymphatic drainage, the presence of ...

We applied focused ultrasound with each of six monthly aducanumab infusions to temporarily open the blood–brain barrier with the goal of enhancing amyloid removal in selected brain regions in ...

Researchers at the National University of Singapore have reported crossing the blood–brain barrier with help from a modified Lactobacillus plantarum. By delivering an appetite-regulating hormone ...

The device inside the skull opens the blood-brain barrier, repeatedly using sound waves to permeate the barrier and reach the brain tumor. IV chemotherapy is then able to reach the neurological ...
