Regulation of P-glycoprotein and Breast Cancer Resistance Protein Expression Induced by Focused Ultrasound-Mediated Blood-Brain Barrier Disruption: A Pilot Study
The blood-brain barrier (BBB) controls brain homeostasis; it is formed by vascular endothelial cells that are physically connected by tight junctions (TJs). The BBB expresses efflux transporters such as P-glycoprotein (P-gp) and breast cancer resistance protein (BCRP), which limit the passage of sub...
