miRNAs involved in the blood brain barrier function

摘要

The current invention relates to use of particular nucleic acids for modulating (increasing or decreasing) blood-brain barrier function, and for use of such nucleic acids in treatment of conditions involving blood brain barrier function, including multiple sclerosis, HIV infection, Alzheimer's disease, Parkinson's disease, epilepsy, and so on. Also provided is an assay for identifying drugs useful in modulating blood brain barrier function.
