Adjusting vascular permeability, leukocyte infiltration, and microglial cell activation to rescue dopaminergic neurons in rodent models of Parkinson’s disease
Abstract Animal studies have indicated that increased blood-brain barrier (BBB) permeability and inflammatory cell infiltration are involved during the progression of Parkinson’s disease (PD). This study used C16, a peptide that competitively binds to integrin αvβ3 and inhibits inflammatory cell inf...
