This is best illustrated by the fact that the blood-brain barrier breaks down begining in the Hippocampus<span>. Deep inside the medial temporal lobe is the region of the brain known as the limbic system which includes the hippocampus, the amygdala, the cingulate gyrus, the thalamus, the hypothalamus, mammillary body; many of which are important to the processing of memory. The Hippocampus is the region of the brain is responsible for learning and memory. The breakdown of the blood brain barrier causes an increase in neurotoxins in the cerebral spinal fluids hence causing progressive degeneration of brain neurons. </span>

Answer:

Hippocampus

Explanation:

The blood-brain barrier is important for the normal functioning and information processing in the brain as it limits the entry of any products, pathogens, and cells present in the blood into the brain.

Hippocampus is a region of the brain that plays a role in learning and memory and it is this region that the break down of blood-brain barrier begins as the early sign of ageing.

Pachacha [2.7K]

Answer: There is presence of tumor.

Explanation: The adhesion of cells to extracellular matrix (EMC) through integrins ( cell-EMC binding molecules, which are collagens, laminins and fibronectin) causes the activation of kinases in the cytoplasm.

However, kinanes helps in controlling the epithelial cell differentiation and upholding the epithelial tissues. This is done by the addition of phosphate groups to a substrate protein which is termed Protein phosporylation. Then, the kinases direct the affairs of the cell and it's activities. For example, it determines the cell division, anabolic and catabolic activities of the cell, movement of ions between the cell and it's environment (signal transduction), protein functions and etc.

Conclusively, since the activities of the cell like cell division and protein functions is dictated by the kinase, reduction in cell division that gave rise to rapid growth is put on hold. Hence, the tumor is been suppressed.

Note: the binding of cell-EMC is regulated by Transforming Growth Factor (TGF) β.
