The blood-brain barrier and glial cells, particularly astrocytes, interact with each other in neuroimmune diseases. In the inflammatory environment typical of these diseases, alterations in vascular endothelial cell surface molecules and weakened cell connections allow immune cells and autoantibodies to enter the central nervous system. Glial cells influence the adhesion of endothelial cells by changing their morphology and releasing various signaling molecules. Multiple sclerosis has been the most studied disease in relation to vascular endothelial and glial cell interactions, but these cells also significantly affect the onset and severity of other neuroimmune conditions, including demyelinating and inflammatory diseases. In this context, we present an overview of these interactions and highlight how they vary across different neuroimmune diseases.
血脑屏障和神经胶质细胞(尤其是星形胶质细胞)在神经免疫疾病中相互作用。在这些疾病中典型的炎症环境中,血管内皮细胞表面分子的改变和细胞连接的减弱使免疫细胞和自身抗体能够进入中枢神经系统。神经胶质细胞通过改变其形态和释放各种信号分子来影响内皮细胞的黏附。多发性硬化症是与血管内皮细胞和神经胶质细胞相互作用关系研究最多的疾病,但这些细胞也显著影响其他神经免疫疾病(包括脱髓鞘和炎症性疾病)的发病和严重程度。在这方面,我们概述了这些相互作用,并强调了它们在不同神经免疫疾病中的差异。
