Vascular mural cells protect the adult brain from haemorrhage but do not control the blood-brain barrier in developing zebrafish
This important study examines the role of pericytes in patterning the zebrafish blood-brain barrier (BBB) and controlling its permeability. Using pdgfrb mutant zebrafish models lacking brain pericytes ...
