Evaluation of a Blood-Brain Barrier in vitro Model Based on Primary Rat Cells
Excerpt
The blood-brain barrier (BBB) maintains the homeostasis between the central nervous system and the blood circulation [1]. Until now, no standard in vitro model of the BBB is available. In this contribution a novel BBB in vitro model based on primary rat brain microvasculature endothelial cells (RBMEC) and primary rat glial cells (RGC) is introduced. The cells were isolated from Wistar rats and were provided by the company Biopredic Int. RBMEC were co-cultured with RGC in a 12-well Transwell system. The development of the barrier was monitored by the measurement of the transendothelial electrical resistance (TEER).[...]
