    Wow... good one.  I'm ruling out the traditional neuron, whose axons and dendrites wouldn't be needed...


    Isn't it most likely a layer of phospho-lipids that form a membrane specific to the task of sorting out all that is turned away from the brain and the relative few allowed in?


    If this was too vague then I hope there's someone really well-learned in nuerology or related studies, because even after classes in nuero-pharmacology, the exact mecahnics of the BBB were seemingly ignored or put on hold for the more advanced classes.


    What course are you taking?
