## Abstract A method to measure the βin vitroβ RNA release from rat brain cell nuclei was described. Nuclear RNA was prelabelled βin vivoβ for 30 or 120 min. In the first case the released RNA was heterogeneous and its electrophoretic mobility was similar to that of cytoplasmic messenger RNAs; nucl

β¦ Synopsis
Destruction of meningeal cells during brain development results in alterations of the extracellular matrix over the surface of the central nervous system, and a regional disruption of the external glial limiting membrane, associated with a reorganization of the glial scaffold. These changes of the glial organization have repercussions on neuronal migration and aggregation leading to a failure of neurons to segregate into spatially separated layers and lobules. We propose that meningeal cells stabilize the labile outer surface of the brain and the glial scaffold during development by specifically controlling the composition of the extracellular matrix at the interface with glial end-feet.

## Abstract The bloodβbrain barrier (BBB) is a specialized structure of the central nervous system (CNS) that restricts immune cell migration and soluble molecule diffusion from the systemic compartment into the CNS. Astrocytes and microglia are resident cells of the CNS that contribute to the form
