Glycocalyx dysregulation impairs blood–brain barrier in ageing and disease - Nature Disruption of mucin-domain glycoprotein expression and function in the endothelial glycocalyx are associated with ageing and Alzheimer’s disease, leading to dysregulated blood–brain barrier function.

Shi et al show ⬇️ that mucin-domain glycoproteins in the brain endothelial glycocalyx are highly dysregulated during ageing and neurodegenerative disease, leading to severe perturbations of the BBB function

#glycotime at its best! 💥🧠🍬🎉
