A beta 1-42-RAGE Interaction Disrupts Tight Junctions of the Blood-Brain Barrier Via Ca2+-Calcineurin Signaling

The blood-brain barrier (BBB), which is formed by adherens and tight junctions (TJs) of endothelial cells, maintains homeostasis of the brain. Disrupted intracellular Ca2+ homeostasis and breakdown of the BBB have been implicated in the pathogenesis of Alzheimer's disease (AD). The receptor for...
