## Abstract ## Objective Thrombin mediates the life‐threatening cerebral edema that occurs after intracerebral hemorrhage. Therefore, we examined the mechanisms of thrombin‐induced injury to the blood–brain barrier (BBB) and subsequent mechanisms of BBB repair. ## Methods Intracerebroventricular
Efflux transport at the blood-brain barrier (BBB) limits the brain tissue exposure to a variety of potential therapeutic agents, including compounds that are relatively lipophilic and would be predicted to permeate the endothelial lining of the brain microvasculature. Recent advances in molecular an
