During hyponatremia, brain tissue is particularly vulnerable due to its high water content and limited ability to regulate osmotic balance. When serum sodium levels drop, water shifts into brain cells, causing cellular swelling and potentially leading to cerebral edema. This swelling can result in increased intracranial pressure and neurological symptoms, distinguishing brain tissue's response from other tissues, which may have more robust mechanisms for handling osmotic changes. Additionally, the blood-brain barrier complicates the brain's ability to adapt to rapid fluctuations in sodium levels.
brain tissue?!?!?!
Though sometimes, some people refer to the brain as a muscle, it really is not a muscle. It is made of completely different types of tissues than a muscle. There are four kinds of tissues in the body; connective tissue, epithelial tissue, muscle tissue, and nervous tissue. The brain is made entirely of nervous tissue and contains no muscle tissue what-so-ever.

Only the brain will have brain tissue
No. The brain is made up of nervous tissue, which is composed of specialized cells called neurons. Muscle tissue is composed of myocytes, or "muscle cells", which have a different organization, structure and function than nervous tissue.
brain tissue LOL this is true
In a sheep brain, you can observe and feel several types of tissue, primarily including nervous tissue, which makes up the bulk of the brain, and connective tissue that surrounds and supports the brain structures. Additionally, you may encounter vascular tissue, including blood vessels that supply the brain, and some areas of glial cells which play supportive roles in the nervous system. The distinct textures of these tissues contribute to the overall structure and function of the brain.
You have nervous tissue mainly found in your brain. This tissue originates from ectoderm.
Nervous (nerve) tissue.
It can be called brain tissue, cerebral tissue or neural tissue (although the latter phrase can refer to nerve tissue anywhere in the body, and not just in the brain).
