New study shows that commonly used herbicide crosses blood-brain barrier

GMWatch via Twitter: The research demonstrates, for the 1st time, that glyphosate successfully crosses the blood-brain barrier & infiltrates the brain. Taken together, the results demonstrate a correlation between #glyphosate exposure & classic symptoms of Alzheimer’s disease.

Glyphosate is a widely used herbicide sprayed on a variety of crops worldwide. A new study explores the possible effects to the brain of glyphosate exposure. The herbicide is shown to cross the blood-brain barrier and may be correlated with hallmarks of Alzheimer’s disease. Graphic by Shireen Dooling

In a new study, Arizona State University Graduate Research Assisstant Joanna Winstone, Assistant Professor Ramon Velazquez and their colleagues at the Translational Genomics Research Institute explore the effects of glyphosate exposure on the brains of mice.

The research demonstrates, for the first time, that glyphosate successfully crosses the blood-brain barrier and infiltrates the brain. ..MORE from ASU news.
