Method for sampling and isolating ECCM from brain and subcutaneous fat tissue. ECCM were collected at autopsy and isolated from both subcutaneous fat and brain tissue from patients who died of CM (n = 7). Brain ECCM were only used for a phenotypical comparison with subcutaneous fat-derived ECCM in the first part of our study to assess the relevance of the latter as an accurate model of cerebral endothelium.
