Correction to: Estimates of the permeability of extra-cellular pathways through the astrocyte endfoot sheath

The astrocyte endfoot sheath surrounding microvessels forms a secondary barrier to extra-cellular transport, separating the extra-cellular space of the parenchyma and the perivascular space outside the endothelial layer. The filtration and membrane diffusion coefficients of the endfoot sheath are estimated to be an order of magnitude lower than those of the extra-cellular matrix while being two orders of magnitude higher than those of the vessel wall.
