Abstract
The blood-brain barrier and glial cells, particularly astrocytes, interact with each other in neuroimmune diseases. In the inflammatory environment typical of these diseases, alterations in vascular endothelial cell surface molecules and weakened cell connections allow immune cells and autoantibodies to enter the central nervous system. Glial cells influence the adhesion of endothelial cells by changing their morphology and releasing various signaling molecules. Multiple sclerosis has been the most studied disease in relation to vascular endothelial and glial cell interactions, but these cells also significantly affect the onset and severity of other neuroimmune conditions, including demyelinating and inflammatory diseases. In this context, we present an overview of these interactions and highlight how they vary across different neuroimmune diseases.
