Blood-Brain Barrier Integrity Decreases With Higher Blood Pressure: A 7T DCE-MRI Study.
Background: Blood-brain barrier (BBB) integrity is presumed to be impaired in hypertension, resulting from cerebral endothelial dysfunction. Hypertension precedes various cerebrovascular diseases, such as cerebral small vessel disease, and is a risk factor for developing neurodegenerative diseases for which BBB disruption is a preceding pathophysiological process. In this cross-sectional study, we investigated the relation between hypertension, current blood pressure, and BBB leakage in human subjects.
Methods: BBB leakage was determined in 22 patients with hypertension and 19 age- and sex-matched normotensive controls (median age [range], 65 [45-80] years; 19 men) using a sparsely time-sampled contrast-enhanced 7T magnetic resonance imaging protocol. Structural cerebral small vessel disease markers were visually rated. Multivariable regression analyses, adjusted for age, sex, cardiovascular risk factors, and cerebral small vessel disease markers, were performed to determine the relation between hypertension status, systolic and diastolic blood pressure, mean arterial pressure, drug treatment, and BBB leakage.
Results: Both hypertensive and normotensive participants showed mild scores of cerebral small vessel disease. BBB leakage did not differ between hypertensive and normotensive participants; however, it was significantly higher for systolic blood pressure, diastolic blood pressure, and mean arterial pressure in the cortex, and diastolic blood pressure and mean arterial pressure in the gray matter. Effectively treated patients showed less BBB leakage than those with current hypertension.
Conclusions: BBB integrity in the total and cortical gray matter decreases with increasing blood pressure but is not related to hypertension status. These findings show that BBB disruption already occurs with increasing blood pressure, before the presence of overt cerebral tissue damage. Additionally, our results suggest that effective antihypertensive medication has a protective effect on the BBB.
