This paper develops a lab-on-a-chip system integrating a human BBB model with neural organoids to study BBB function and nanoparticle transport, showing BBB integrity and nanoparticle entry into neural tissue.

The paper identifies gut phages with adhesin proteins that bind epithelial cells and traffic to the endoplasmic reticulum, revealing potential interactions with the human virome.

This study shows that tight junctions and cell-matrix adhesions in brain endothelial cells reciprocally control blood-brain barrier integrity through mechanical forces and protein expression changes.
