Name
maintenance of blood-brain barrier
Ontology
biological_process
Synonyms
maintenance of BBB, maintenance of blood/brain barrier
Alternate IDs

Definition
Maintaining the structure and function of the blood-brain barrier, thus ensuring specific regulated transport of substances (e.g. macromolecules, small molecules, ions) into the brain, and out of the brain into the blood circulation. Source: PMID:20080302, GOC:bc, GOC:bf, GOC:aruk, PMID:30280653, GOC:sl
Comment
Homeostasis and maintenance processes are regulatory processes, therefore, regulation child terms, such as: regulation of maintenance of blood-brain barrier, should not exist for these terms. Instead, for capturing regulation at the blood-brain barrier, consider using the part_of child term: regulation of blood-brain barrier permeability.
