Bacterial extracellular vesicles indirectly destabilize a human stem cell-derived blood-brain barrier on-chip through pro-inflammatory stimulation of immune cells

Louis P. Widom, Panteha Torabian, Michelle A. Trempel, Molly C. McCloskey, Lea Vacca Michel, James L. McGrath, Thomas R. Gaborski

The paper shows that bacterial extracellular vesicles disrupt a BBB on-chip model indirectly via immune cell activation, not directly through BMEC damage.
