Taraxacum coreanum (Korean Dandelion) Extract Protects against Lipopolysaccharide-Induced Blood–Brain Barrier Destruction via Regulation of Tight Junctions and Inflammatory Responses in bEnd.3 Cells

Dysfunction of the blood-brain barrier (BBB) is closely related to neuroinflammation-mediated neurodegenerative disorders. Lipopolysaccharide (LPS), an endotoxin, can cause inflammation by impairing the brain endothelial barrier function and increasing the BBB permeability. Although
