This property arises from the epithelial-like tight junctions within the brain capillary endothelium. Epub 2016 Sep 7.Stanimirovic D, Kemmerich K, Haqqani AS, Farrington GK.Adv Pharmacol. However, THC is a highly lipophilic molecule that can diffuse across cell membranes. The blood–brain barrier (BBB) prevents the brain uptake of most pharmaceuticals. Cholesterol necessary for myelination and other functions (for example, synthesis of oxysterols and neuroactive steroids) is synthesized Can TfR enhance antibody uptake in the primate brain? for a detailed review In the last few years great attention has been dedicated to this area, where new knowledge derived from basic science finds translation and practical application to human health, also by means of nutritional interventions and thanks to the availability of well characterized lipid‐containing foods. To determine how the brain’s bouncer decides which molecules to welcome in and which to turn … The major lipid constituents of myelin, cholesterol, glycerophospholipids, and glycosphingolipids, were identified more than 60 years ago Indeed, in addition to the above‐mentioned lipids, other less abundant lipid species are present in myelin and in brain cells.
2020 Jul 22;17(1):47. doi: 10.1186/s12987-020-00209-0.Yang J, Sun J, Castellanos DM, Pardridge WM, Sumbria RK.Mol Pharm. 2016 Dec;16(12):1455-1468. doi: 10.1080/14712598.2016.1230195. Using therapeutic antibodies that need to cross the blood-brain barrier (BBB) to treat neurological disease is a difficult challenge.
Experimental evidence demonstrated that non esterified fatty acids, present in plasma as albumin complexes, cross the blood brain barrier and reach brain cells, mainly by means of a rather simple mechanism, that is by passive diffusion (see Mitchell et al. But, scientists knew that the brain also depends upon the delivery of hormones and key nutrients, including glucose and several amino acids, from other organs of the body.

Although imatinib, a BCR-ABL tyrosine kinase inhibitor, is used to treat acute Philadelphia chromosome-positive (Ph(+)) leukemia, it does not prevent central nervous system (CNS) relapses resulting from poor drug penetration through the blood-brain barrier.
