  2. Blood–brain barrier - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Blood–brain_barrier

    The BBB is distinct from the quite similar blood-cerebrospinal fluid barrier, which is a function of the choroidal cells of the choroid plexus, and from the blood-retinal barrier, which can be considered a part of the whole realm of such barriers. [10] Not all vessels in the human brain exhibit BBB properties.

  3. Drug delivery to the brain - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Drug_delivery_to_the_brain

    A group from the University of Oxford led by Prof. Matthew Wood claims that exosomes can cross the blood–brain barrier and deliver siRNAs, antisense oligonucleotides, chemotherapeutic agents and proteins specifically to neurons after inject them systemically (in blood). Because these exosomes are able to cross the blood–brain barrier, this ...

  4. Cerebellum - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cerebellum

    Feedforward processing: The cerebellum differs from most other parts of the brain (especially the cerebral cortex) in that the signal processing is almost entirely feedforward—that is, signals move unidirectionally through the system from input to output, with very little recurrent internal transmission. The small amount of recurrence that ...

  5. Haemodynamic response - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Haemodynamic_response

    The most common functional imaging signal is the blood-oxygen-level dependent signal (BOLD), which primarily corresponds to the concentration of deoxyhemoglobin. [13] The BOLD effect is based on the fact that when neuronal activity is increased in one part of the brain, there is also an increased amount of cerebral blood flow to that area which ...

  6. Glia limitans - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Glia_limitans

    The glia limitans also acts as a second line of defense against anything that passes the blood–brain barrier. However, because the astrocytes surrounding the vessels are connected by gap junctions , it is not considered part of the BBB and material can readily pass between the foot processes.

  7. Median eminence - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Median_eminence

    The median eminence is generally defined as the portion of the ventral hypothalamus from which the portal vessels arise. [1] The median eminence is a small swelling on the tuber cinereum, posterior to and on top of the pituitary stalk; it lies in the area roughly bounded on its posterolateral region by the cerebral peduncles, and on its anterolateral region by the optic chiasm.

  8. In vivo magnetic resonance spectroscopy - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/In_vivo_magnetic_resonance...

    In vivo magnetic resonance spectroscopy (MRS) is a specialized technique associated with magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). [1] [2]Magnetic resonance spectroscopy (MRS), also known as nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy, is a non-invasive, ionizing-radiation-free analytical technique that has been used to study metabolic changes in brain tumors, strokes, seizure disorders, Alzheimer's ...

    Blood–ocular barrier – Physical barrier between the local blood vessels and most parts of the eye itself; Blood–retinal barrierPart of the blood–ocular barrier that prevents certain substances from entering the retina; Blood–testis barrier – Physical barrier between the blood vessels and the seminiferous tubules of animal testes
