Assessing Transendothelial Electrical Resistance in an In Vitro Blood-Brain Barrier Model
Source: Kuzmanov, I., et al. An In Vitro Model of the Blood-brain Barrier Using Impedance Spectroscopy: A Focus on T Cell-endothelial Cell Interaction. J. Vis. Exp. (2016) This video demonstrates a method for assessing transendothelial electrical resistance (TEER) in mouse brain microvascular endothelial cells in vitro. A high TEER value indicates intact endothelial cell junctions, while the addition of activated T cells lowers the TEER value, reflecting disruption of the junctional barrier.
