Abstract:The blood cerebrospinal fluid barrier (blood-CSF barrier) existed between peripheral and central nervous system (CNS) plays critical roles in the maintenance of CNS homeostasis. Emerging evidence suggests that blood-CSF barrier is closely related to the development and pathogenesis of Alzheimer’s disease (AD). This review discusses the role of receptor for advanced glycation end products (RAGE), low density lipoprotein receptor-related protein 1 (LRP1) transporters, and the neurovascular unit (NVU) mediated central β-amyloid protein regulation in the pathogenesis of AD, providing new prevention and treatment strategies for AD.

Key words:blood cerebrospinal fluid barrier (blood-CSF barrier),&,beta,-amyloid protein (A&,beta,),Alzheimer&,rsquo,s disease (AD),RAGE/LRP1 transporters,neurovascular unit
