Blood–Brain Barrier Disruption in Neuroimmunological Disease
Fumitaka Shimizu,
Masayuki Nakamori
Abstract:The blood–brain barrier (BBB) acts as a structural and functional barrier for brain homeostasis. This review highlights the pathological contribution of BBB dysfunction to neuroimmunological diseases, including multiple sclerosis (MS), neuromyelitis optica spectrum disorder (NMOSD), myelin oligodendrocyte glycoprotein antibody-associated disease (MOGAD), autoimmune encephalitis (AE), and paraneoplastic neurological syndrome (PNS). The transmigration of massive lymphocytes across the BBB caused by the activatio… Show more
