What is the purpose of the blood-brain barrier? Describe its maintenance from a cellular

Your Answer:
prevents most particles from entering the central nervous system. It keeps the brain
separated from the spinal cord for blood circulation
The blood-brain barrier is a diffusion barrier which prevents most particles from
entering the central nervous system tissue, keeping the brain and spinal cord
separate from general blood circulation. The blood-brain barrier is formed by the
relatively impermeable brain capillaries, due to the glial cells astrocytes.
Maintenance of the blood-brain-barrier is important to provide a stable chemical
environment for the nervous system.
