Abstract
⺠We studied the effects of 2-chlorohexadecanal (2-ClHDA) on brain endothelial cells. ⺠Brain endothelial cells take up and metabolize 2-ClHDA. ⺠2-ClHDA impairs endothelial barrier integrity. ⺠2-ClHDA induces mitochondrial dysfunction and activates caspase 3. ⺠Phloretin provides protection against 2-ClHDA-induced barrier dysfunction.
