Exposure of mice to airborne particles from Los Angeles highways caused rapid blood-brain barrier breakdown and pericyte degeneration within days.

“we expose the mice to Airborne particles from Los Angeles we're taking from the the highway the particles and giving it to the mouse to see what's the impact of the pollution on vascular function because there's some evidence also using scans those people have tend to have more weight better disease and things like that so we started looking into that and we felt very interestingly we we found a high peak of a vascular uh it's a longitudinal disease but with very rapidly a few days after giving the particles to the mouse we were seeing blood brain by breakdown and parasite degeneration very quickly”
