Article Synopsis
- The study looked at how otolaryngologists (ear, nose, and throat doctors) can help people who have nosebleeds that just won't stop. They wanted to see if tying off or burning a certain artery (the sphenopalatine artery) would work well and safely over time.
- Researchers reviewed 16 different studies with 454 patients; about two-thirds had the artery tied off, and the rest had it burned or both.
- The results showed only a small number of patients had nosebleeds return or other complications, making these methods seem safe and helpful for stubborn nosebleeds.
The blood-brain barrier (BBB) is a structure mainly formed by brain capillary endothelial cells (BCEC) whose role is to regulate the exchange of compounds between the blood and the brain. In this process efflux and uptake transporters play a key role. Aim of this study was to compare the two previously established cell lines hCMEC/D3 and hBMEC as BBB cell models for the application of an adenoviral system to transiently express OATP2B1 and Pgp.
