Description
English: A network of capillaries supply brain cells with nutrients. Tight seals in their walls keep blood toxins—and many beneficial drugs—out of the brain.

Français : Un réseau de capillaires fournit les cellules du cerveau avec des nutriments. Des jonctions serrées dans leurs parois empêchent les toxines du sang - et beaucoup de médicaments bénéfiques - de pénétrer dans le cerveau.
Ελληνικά: Ένα δίκτυο τριχοειδών αγγείων παρέχει θρεπτικά συστατικά στα εγκεφαλικά κύτταρα. Τα σφιχτά συνδεδεμένα κύτταρα του τοίχους των τριχοειδών κρατούν τις τοξίνες του αίματος - αλλά και πολλά ωφέλιμα φάρμακα - έξω από τον εγκέφαλο.
