## Abstract In adult rats, using the single‐pass brain uptake technique with a tritiated water standard, L‐phenylalanine was shown to enter brain across the blood‐brain barrier (BBB) by both a saturable and diffusionary process. A kinetic analysis of the data revealed Michaelis constant (K~a~) of 0
## Abstract The brain capillary endothelium is a formidable barrier to entry of foreign chemicals into the central nervous system (CNS). For the most part it poorly distinguishes between therapeutics and neurotoxins and thus the blood‐brain barrier both protects the brain from toxic chemicals and l
The perfusion of rat brain with '251-transferrin resulted in a receptor-mediated uptake of transferrin into the endothelium of the blood-brain barrier followed by its detection in the brain. During a pulsechase experiment, lZSI-transferrin accumulated in the endothelial cells during the pulse, with
