Astrocytes help form the blood brain barrier. The blood brain barrier prevents harmful materials from moving out of the bloodstream and into the brain. It helps maintain an ion gradient and is important in the transport of materials into and out of the brain. Its endothelial cells contain many tight and adherens junctions‚ which make the endothelial cells of these capillaries tighter than in other places in the body. Astrocyte feet are in physical contact with the capillary endothelial cells. In
