The brain actively obtains nutrients through various transporters on brain microvessel endothelial cells (BMECs). Major facilitator superfamily domain–containing protein 2a (MFSD2A) serves as a key transporter of docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) at the blood–brain barrier (BBB) and is exclusively expressed in BMECs. Although …

Parkinson's disease (PD) is characterized by widespread distribution of Lewy bodies, which are composed of phosphorylated and aggregated forms of α-Synuclein (α-Syn), in the brain. Although the accumulation and propagation of α-Syn contribute to the development of PD, the involvement of the …

Nutrients are actively taken up by the brain via various transporters at the blood-brain barrier (BBB). A lack of specific nutrients in the aged brain, including decreased levels of docosahexaenoic acid (DHA), is associated with memory and cognitive dysfunction. To compensate for …

Parkinson’s disease (PD) is characterized by widespread distribution of Lewy bodies, which are mainly composed of aggregated α-synuclein(α-Syn), in the brain. We previously revealed that pericytes, one of the blood-brain barrier-constituting cells, take up α-Syn and degrade it. Therefore, an efficient uptake …

Parkinson's disease (PD) is characterized by widespread distribution of Lewy bodies, which are mainly composed of aggregated α-synuclein(α-Syn), in the brain. The ability of glial cells to take up extracellular α-Syn contributes to the wide distribution and accumulation of α-Syn in the …

The pathological hallmark of Parkinson disease (PD) is a widespread distribution of the aggregated α-synuclein (α-Syn) proteins in the inclusions known as Lewy bodies. Exogenous α-Syn secreted from neurons could induce neuroinflammation. We previously reported that pericytes, an essential component of the …

Use of proton pump inhibitors (PPIs) is associated with increased risk of dementia and cognitive impairment. Accumulating evidence indicate that the dysfunction of blood-brain barrier (BBB) in hippocampus was observed in the aged people with prior cognitive impairment, suggesting that BBB dysfunction …
