Reviewing the Significance of Blood-Brain Barrier Disruption in Multiple Sclerosis Pathology and Treatment

Rodica Balasa et al.

Summary: This review discusses the disruption of the blood-brain barrier (BBB) in multiple sclerosis (MS) pathogenesis, focusing on the impairment of the neurovascular unit (NVU) and metabolic and mitochondrial dysfunctions of BBB’s endothelial cells. It highlights the hypoxic hypothesis in MS, potential mechanisms of neurodegeneration in progressive forms of MS, and the possibility of BBB as a therapeutic target for delivering neuroprotective molecules into the central nervous system. Additionally, it explores the beneficial effects of disease-modifying therapies (DMTs) that can cross the BBB and act directly in the CNS.
