A schematic longitudinal section of a brain microvessel shows a continuous monolayer of flattened endothelial cells with nuclei lining a central lumen. In neuroanatomy and physiology, this capillary wall forms the blood–brain barrier (BBB), a tissue-level barrier within the central nervous system (CNS) microvasculature that restricts paracellular diffusion via tight junctions and regulates transcellular transport. The illustration emphasizes the hierarchical organization of endothelial cells (cell) within capillary tissue (vessel wall) situated between intravascular blood and surrounding neural parenchyma.
