Scope and Contents
Contents
Active neurons increase their energy supply by dilating nearby arterioles and capillaries to increase blood flow, but the mechanisms underlying neurovascular coupling are debated. In this paper, the authors show that different calcium-dependent signaling pathways regulate blood flow at the level of capillary pericytes and arteriole smooth muscle.
