The blood-brain barrier/neurovascular unit in health and disease
BT Hawkins, TP Davis - Pharmacological reviews, 2005 - ASPET
The blood-brain barrier (BBB) is the regulated interface between the peripheral circulation
and the central nervous system (CNS). Although originally observed by Paul Ehrlich in 1885, …

Nicotine increases in vivo blood–brain barrier permeability and alters cerebral microvascular tight junction protein distribution
BT Hawkins, TJ Abbruscato, RD Egleton, RC Brown… - Brain research, 2004 - Elsevier
The blood–brain barrier (BBB) is critical to the health of the central nervous system. The
BBB is formed primarily by the presence of tight junctions (TJ) between cerebral microvessel …

Targeting blood-brain barrier sphingolipid signaling reduces basal P-glycoprotein activity and improves drug delivery to the brain
RE Cannon, JC Peart, BT Hawkins… - Proceedings of the …, 2012 - National Acad Sciences
P-glycoprotein, an ATP-driven drug efflux pump, is a major obstacle to the delivery of small-molecule
drugs across the blood-brain barrier and into the CNS. Here we test a unique …
