The blood-brain barrier (BBB) is situated between the blood and brain extracellular space (ECS), at the endothelial cells of the cerebral capillaries joined by tight junctions. Its characteristics allow a great selectivity in the blood-brain exchange of solutes: nearly total exclusion of some of them, enhancement of exchange for others. The choroid plexuses, situated at the blood-cerebrospinal fluid interface, play a similar role between blood and CSF. Neither interface can be studied separately.
血脑屏障(BBB)位于血液与脑细胞外间隙(ECS)之间,处于由紧密连接相连的脑毛细血管内皮细胞处。其特性使得溶质在血脑之间的交换具有高度选择性:一些溶质几乎完全被阻隔,而另一些溶质的交换则得到增强。脉络丛位于血液与脑脊液的界面处,在血液与脑脊液之间发挥类似作用。这两个界面都无法单独进行研究。
