## Abstract Glycosphingolipid (GSL) antigens have been considered to be involved in the pathogenesis of autoimmune neurologic disorders including multiple sclerosis. To establish the GSL pattern specific for endothelial cells forming bloodβbrain barrier (BBB), we established a method to yield suffi

## Abstract Pβglycoprotein (Pβgp), a drug efflux pump, is known to alter the bioavailability of antiretroviral drugs at several sites, including the brain. We have previously shown that human immunodeficiency virusβ1 (HIVβ1) glycoprotein 120 (gp120) induces proinflammatory cytokine secretion and de
We examined cytokine-mediated neuronal death in neuron-astrocyte cultures from second trimester human fetal cerebrum. In these cultures, high-output inducible nitric oxide synthase (NOS) and tumor necrosis factor-β£ (TNFβ£) are expressed in astrocytes after exposure to IL-1β€/IFNβ₯. Neuronal cell death
