Final version of our paper on zebrafish pericytes and BBB function is now out in Elife! Congrats to Oz the first author and all contributors. elifesciences.org/articles/104...

Mural cells protect the adult brain from hemorrhage but do not control the blood–brain barrier in developing zebrafish

Pericytes regulate cerebrovascular development, while vascular smooth muscle cells prevent hemorrhage and blood–brain barrier breakdown at vascular hotspots in juvenile and adult zebrafish.
