Synopsis of recent research by authors named "Raymond C Sun"
- Raymond C Sun's recent research focuses on the role of astrocytes in maintaining the integrity of the blood-brain barrier (BBB), particularly investigating specific adhesion molecules involved in its function.
- In his 2023 article, he used quantitative transcriptional profiling to explore how astrocytes interact with endothelial cells, which are crucial for BBB development and maintenance.
- The findings highlight the importance of the alpha7 integrin subunit in astrocytes, suggesting it plays a significant role in promoting the integrity of the BBB, ultimately contributing to overall brain health.
