The Blood Brain Barrier and Its Modulation

Year 2020, Volume: 10 Issue: 2, 115 - 121, 28.12.2020

Abstract

The blood – brain barrier (BBB) is a complex multicellular structure, which composites of endothelial cells, pericytes, immune cells, astrocytes, and basement membrane, also known as the “neurovascular unit”. BBB protects the central nervous system (CNS) from the toxins and pathogens in systemic circulation. Endothelial cells are the main barrier component because of the absence of fenestrae, extremely low levels of transport vesicles, and the presence tight junctions (TJ’s), which restricts paracellular transport. Also, the presence of defense mechanisms like efflux pumps and influx pumps which are members of superfamily of membrane transporters, makes BBB impossible for penetration. These pumps regulate the entry of ions and nutrients from blood to brain. The unique nature of BBB at the same time restricts the access of a large number of therapeutic agents more than 98% of all CNS drugs into the brain. Getting drugs across the BBB is a very active field of research from past few centuries to these days. Despite of intensive research, thousands of peoples are suffering from CNS diseases, such as neurodegenerative disorders, brain tumors, HIV encephalopathy and epilepsy. Scientists from all over the world are investigating a various strategy for enhancing drug delivery through the BBB. Current methods for enhancing drug delivery classified into two groups: invasive and non-invasive methods. While invasive methods are including neurosurgical-based methods like convection-enhanced delivery, intracerebroventricular injections, intracerebral implants and also methods for disruption BBB by opening TJ`s with ultrasound and iontophoresis, non-invasive methods include using nanoparticles, Trojan horses, prodrugs technologies and inhibition of efflux transporters, Alternative technics like intranasal drug delivery are also the non-invasive methods for BBB drug delivery.

Kan Beyin Bariyeri ve İlaç Geçiş Modulasyonu

Year 2020, Volume: 10 Issue: 2, 115 - 121, 28.12.2020

Abstract

Kan-beyin bariyeri (KBB) “nörovasküler ünite” olarak da bilinen endotelyal hücreler, perisitler, bağışıklık hücreleri, astrositler ve bazal membrandan oluşan karmaşık ve çok hücreli yapıdır. KBB merkezi sinir sistemi (MSS)’ni sistemik dolaşımdaki çeşitli toksinlerden ve patojenlerden korumaktadır. Endotel hücreleri, porların yokluğu, çok düşük seviyede taşıyıcı veziküllerin olması ve paraselüler geçişi kısıtlayan sıkı bağlantıların (TJ’ların) bulunması nedeniyle, bariyerin ana bileşenidir. Ayrıca, KBB’den maddelerin geçişinde rol oynayan taşıyıcılar olan ATP Bağlı Kaset süper ailesinin efluks mekanizmalarının ve Solüt Taşıyıcılar (SLC) süper ailesinin influks mekanizmalarının varlığı çoğu molekülün beyin dokusuna girişini daha da sınırlamaktadır. Bu mekanizmalar sistemik dolaşımdan beyine iyonların ve besin maddelerinin girişini düzenlemektedir. KBB’nin kısıtlayıcı eşsiz doğası aynı zamanda çok sayıda terapötik maddelerin, MSS ilaçlarının %98'inden fazlasının beyine erişimini kısıtlamaktadır. KBB'yi geçerek beyin dokusuna erişmek, bilim adamları için son birkaç yüzyıldan günümüze en büyük zorluklardan biri olmuştur. Yoğun araştırmalara rağmen binlerce insan nörodejeneratif bozukluklar, beyin tümörleri, HIV ensefalopati ve epilepsi gibi MSS hastalıklarından muzdarip durumdadırlar. Bütün dünyada, bilim adamları KBB’yi geçerek ilaç uygulama yöntemleri hakkında yoğun araştırmalar yapmaktadır. Yoğun olarak kullanılan ilaç uygulama yöntemleri non-invaziv ve invaziv yöntemler olarak 2 grupta toplanmaktadır. İnvaziv yöntemler nöroşirurji temelinde kafatasında delik açılarak, konveksiyonla arttırılmış difüzyon (KAG), intraserebro ventriküler (İSV) enjeksiyon, beyin içi implantasyon (IK), TJ’ların ultrason dalgalarıyla ve iyontoforezle açılarak KBB’nin bozulması tekniklerini içerirken, non invazif yöntemler nano parçacıkların, truva atı metodunun kullanılması, ön ilaç uygulaması ve efluks taşıyıcıların inhibisyonu metotlarını içermektedir. Burun içi ilaç gönderimi gibi alternatif teknikler de mevcuttur.
