INTRODUCTION: The choroid plexuses, blood vessels, and brain barriers are closely related both in terms of morphology and function. Hypertension causes changes in cerebral blood flow and in small vessels and capillaries of the brain. This review studies the effects of high blood pressure (HBP) on the choroid plexuses and brain barriers.
DEVELOPMENT: The choroid plexuses (ChP) are structures located in the cerebral ventricles, and are highly conserved both phylogenetically and ontogenetically. The ChPs develop during embryogenesis, forming a functional barrier during the first weeks of gestation. They are composed of highly vascularised epithelial tissue covered by microvilli, and their main function is cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) production. The central nervous system (CNS) is protected by the blood-brain barrier (BBB) and the blood-CSF barrier (BCSFB). While the BBB is formed by endothelial cells of the microvasculature of the CNS, the BCSFB is formed by epithelial cells of the choroid plexuses. Chronic hypertension induces vascular remodelling. This prevents hyperperfusion at HBPs, but increases the risk of ischaemia at low blood pressures. In normotensive individuals, in contrast, cerebral circulation is self-regulated, blood flow remains constant, and the integrity of the BBB is preserved.
CONCLUSIONS: HBP induces changes in the choroid plexuses that affect the stroma, blood vessels, and CSF production. HBP also exacerbates age-related ChP dysfunction and causes alterations in the brain barriers, which are more marked in the BCSFB than in the BBB. Brain barrier damage may be determined by quantifying blood S-100β and TTRm levels.
