There isn't blood inside brain cells, but the brain does receive a rich blood supply through a network of blood vessels. Blood provides oxygen and nutrients necessary for brain function. However, brain cells (neurons) are not in direct contact with blood. Instead, the blood-brain barrier (BBB) protects brain tissue by regulating the substances that can pass from the bloodstream into the brain, allowing essential nutrients in while keeping harmful substances out.

Brain cells get oxygen and nutrients through cerebrospinal fluid and capillaries that transport substances across the blood-brain barrier. This indirect delivery helps maintain a stable environment for brain function.
