Pathogens penetrating the central nervous system: infection pathways and the cellular and molecular mechanisms of invasion
The brain is well protected against microbial invasion by cellular barriers, such as the blood-
brain barrier (BBB) and the blood-cerebrospinal fluid barrier (BCSFB). In addition, cells …
