Abstract:
Advances in stem cell engineering have opened new avenues for more accurately developing in vitro models of the human blood-brain barrier (BBB). Here, we highlight state-of-the-art human BBB-on-a-chip technologies and discuss the importance of human brain cells for better modeling the human brain pathophysiology.
