## Abstract Sequence‐specific knockdown of gene expression is a goal that has been long sought by both basic and clinical investigators. In this regard, the discovery of RNA interference (RNAi) in __Caenorhabditis elegans__ was immediately recognized as a potential breakthrough for studying gene fu
An understanding of the mechanisms of transport of circulating nutrients and hormones through the brain capillary wall, i. e., the blood-brain barrier, is important because the availability in brain of these substances influences a number of cerebral metabolic pathways. For example, the utilization
