Morphologic alterations of the blood-brain barrier with experimental meningitis in the rat. Temporal sequence and role of encapsulation.

The cerebral capillary endothelium is unique and functions as an effective blood-brain barrier (BBB) owing to its intercellular tight junctions and rare pinocytotic vesicles. To assess how bacterial meningitis alters the BBB, rats were inoculated intracisternally with three encapsulated meningeal pa...
