Springer Physiology, Pharmacology and Pathology of the BBB 273

Gain access to a comprehensive collection of current knowledge and leading research regarding the blood-brain barrier. This volume from the Handbook of Experimental Pharmacology series provides a deep look into the science of neurological barriers and their impact on medicine. The text is organized into four main parts to help readers navigate complex topics easily. You will find detailed information on the structure, function, and developmental aspects of the blood-brain barrier. The book also addresses the significant challenges researchers face when trying to find and develop drugs that can successfully cross this barrier. Beyond basic physiology, this resource covers experimental methods used to study the blood-brain barrier and examines its role in various disease mechanisms. By understanding these processes, professionals can better grasp the consequences for modern drug development. This book serves as a vital resource for those studying neurology, pharmacology, and internal medicine.
