    Correlated magnetic resonance imaging and ultramicroscopy (MR-UM) is a tool kit to assess the dynamics of glioma angiogenesis

    Michael O Breckwoldt, Julia Bode ... Björn Tews
    Correlated magnetic resonance imaging and ultramicroscopy resolves macro- and microvasculature in glioma models and allows treatment monitoring of antiangiogenic therapy.

    Intracellular uptake of macromolecules by brain lymphatic endothelial cells during zebrafish embryonic development

    Max van Lessen, Shannon Shibata-Germanos ... Stefan Schulte-Merker
    The discovery of a unique brain lymphatic cell type in the zebrafish model will facilitate the study of embryonic development and physiology, an essential mission to understand how clearance of macromolecules impact neurological diseases.

    Transcriptional and epigenomic landscapes of CNS and non-CNS vascular endothelial cells

    Mark F Sabbagh, Jacob S Heng ... Jeremy Nathans
    Genome-wide integration of transcriptome, accessible chromatin, and DNA methylome data from vascular endothelial cells lays the foundation for understanding the gene regulatory circuits that generate organ-specific vascular specialization.

    Wnt signaling mediates acquisition of blood–brain barrier properties in naïve endothelium derived from human pluripotent stem cells

    Benjamin D Gastfriend, Hideaki Nishihara ... Eric V Shusta
    Activation of Wnt/β-catenin signaling in endothelial progenitors derived from human pluripotent stem cells partially induces the specialized blood–brain barrier phenotype while the same treatment in matured endothelial cells is less efficacious.

    Apolipoprotein M-bound sphingosine-1-phosphate regulates blood–brain barrier paracellular permeability and transcytosis

    Mette Mathiesen Janiurek, Rana Soylu-Kucharz ... Martin Lauritzen
    Shortage of blood-borne apolipoprotein-M–bound sphingosine-1-phosphate, which accompanies various brain disorders, causes paracellular leak and increase in transcytosis at the blood–brain barrier, which can be reversed, thus is of clinical relevance.

    Clearance of beta-amyloid is facilitated by apolipoprotein E and circulating high-density lipoproteins in bioengineered human vessels

    Jerome Robert, Emily B Button ... Cheryl L Wellington
    Modelling beta-amyloid deposition in bioengineered human vessels represents a notable advance to further investigate the role of the vasculature in Alzheimer's disease.

    A novel perivascular cell population in the zebrafish brain

    Marina Venero Galanternik, Daniel Castranova ... Brant M Weinstein
    A new brain perivascular cell type in the zebrafish related to mammalian Fluorescent Granular Perithelial (FGP) cells emerges directly from endothelium during early development.

    Tip cell-specific requirement for an atypical Gpr124- and Reck-dependent Wnt/β-catenin pathway during brain angiogenesis

    Benoit Vanhollebeke, Oliver A Stone ... Didier YR Stainier
    The membrane proteins Reck and Gpr124 are integral components of a novel Wnt7a/Wnt7b-specific signaling complex, and there is a distinctive requirement for Wnt/β-catenin signaling in tip cells during angiogenesis in the central nervous system.

    Neuropilin-1 functions as a VEGFR2 co-receptor to guide developmental angiogenesis independent of ligand binding

    Maria V Gelfand, Nellwyn Hagan ... Chenghua Gu
    Interactions between Neuropilin-1 and VEGFR2, rather than VEGF-Neuropilin-1 binding, underlie Neuropilin-1's critical function in VEGF-mediated vascular development.

    3D optogenetic control of arteriole diameter in vivo

    Philip J O'Herron, David A Hartmann ... Andy Y Shih
    The diameter of individual or multiple arterioles can be rapidly controlled with high spatiotemporal resolution using optogenetics, providing a technique for the direct manipulation of blood flow independently of neural activity or pharmacological agents.
