The characteristics of carrier-mediated transport of taurine at the blood-brain barrier (BBB) were studied by using primary cultured bovine brain capillary endothelial cells (BCECs), in situ brain perfusion and brain capillary depletion methods in rats. The uptake of [ 3 H]taurine by cultured cells showed that the active transporter functions on both the luminal and antiluminal membranes...
Among the HMG-CoA reductase inhibitors, lovastatin and simvastatin have central nervous system (CNS) side effects, such as sleep disturbance, whereas pravastatin does not. This difference in CNS side effects may be due to a difference in blood–brain barrier (BBB) permeability among these inhibitors. To test this hypothesis, we compared the BBB transport ability of HMG-CoA reductase inhibitors by using...
