Side by side comparison between dynamic versus static models
of blood–brain barrier in vitro: A permeability study

Janigro et al., 2006

______________________________________

Our mission at Flocel Inc. is not only to to provide high-quality products and services for in vitro 3D cell barrier culture, but also to convey -with integrity and transparency- the advantages of our DIV-BBB 2.0 system compared to other approaches --such as the Transwell.

- Stronger Barriers, Stronger Data -

A comparative study between cell barriers cultured in a static flow (i.e., Transwell) and dynamic flow (i.e., DIV-BBB) environment showed that fluid flow conditions greatly influence how a cell barrier develops. Trans-endothelial electrical resistance (TEER) across the DIV-BBB culture (B) increased to values 10-fold higher than those recorded in the Transwell (A), and much closer to values observed in vivo. This is because dynamic flow causes shear stress on the apical surface of the cell, and influences cell development and function.

This concept is reiterated in the inset microscope images of the figure above: A cell culture that has been subjected to dynamic flow and physiologically-representative levels of shear stress (B) resulted in a confluent monolayer of cells expressing tight junctions. The cell barrier in under static flow (A) receives no shear stress, and instead forms a multilayer of cells with less tight junction organization.

- Higher Selective Permeability -

Owing to the stronger and more physiologically-accurate cell barrier grown under dynamic flow conditions, the DIV-BBB also presents a more stringent regulation of selective permeability. Tests conducted between cells cultured in the DIV-BBB (C) and Transwell (D) for passage of phenytoin (an epileptic drug with in vivo permeability levels of 0.0001 cm/s) showed markedly higher levels of permeability through the Transwell than the DIV-BBB, and 4-fold higher than in vivo. The stronger and more physiologically-accurate cell barriers grown under the dynamic fluid conditions of the DIV-BBB allow for more accurate testing of drug permeability and pharmacokinetics.

- What if I already own Transwell products? -

If you would prefer to continue using your Transwell products (such as Endohm-6, Endohm-12, Endohm-24SNAP cell culture chambers or any "chopstick" electrodes), we also offer a Trans-endothelial Electrical Resistance (TEER) Measurement Unit that is compatible with these Endohm products, and much more versatile! Not only does our TEER Measurement Unit allow for frequency sweeps between 0.1 Hz and 1,000 Hz (0.1 Hz sampling resolution), it can be directed by the user to automatically sample single-frequency and frequency sweep data for an indefinite amount of time, and save this data to a .xls or .csv save file. No  more pushing a button and jotting down the TEER value every time you want to take a measurement!

輕型顱腦損傷（MHI和MTBI）占顱腦損傷的95%,；診斷和早期管理包括計(jì)算機(jī)斷層掃描（CT）或住院觀察,，但是這些選項(xiàng)都不理想。在醫(yī)院觀察是不經(jīng)濟(jì)的,；CT有時是不切實(shí)際的,，涉及潛在的有害電離輻射。GFAP和S100等腦蛋白在體液中表達(dá)水平與許多神經(jīng)系統(tǒng)疾病有關(guān)聯(lián)性,。Flocel開發(fā)了商業(yè)化的血液測試小型工具,，給創(chuàng)傷性腦損傷進(jìn)行前期及時診斷，防止嚴(yán)重的延遲性后果,。
