Abstract
Recent findings of an active neuroimmune exchange at brain border regions have challenged the concept of the immune-privileged central nervous system. The study by Rustenhoven et al. in this issue of Cell shows that dural sinuses serve as a conduit for brain-derived antigens to interact with the immune system, allowing in situ immune surveillance.
