- Abstract
- The tight spatial and temporal coupling between neuronal activity and blood flow ensures
that active brain regions receive an adequate supply of oxygen and energetic metabolites.
There clearly is still an enormous amount of experimental and theoretical work to be done
to unravel the precise mechanism of neurovascular coupling, but over the last decade
significant advances have been made. The most recent studies confirm the original finding
that the activation of Ca2+ elevations in astrocyte endfeet is an essential step but also reveal
new levels of complexity in the astrocyte control of neurovascular coupling. The recent
evidence for a link between Ca2+ signalling in astrocytes and local metabolic states of the
brain tissue has broad implications for the interpretation of data from functional brain
imaging studies. Unraveling the full molecular mechanism of the astrocyte control of
cerebral blood flow represents a formidable challenge in neurobiological research in the
years to come that might also create opportunities for the development of new therapeutic
strategies for cerebrovascular diseases such as ischemic stroke, hypertension and migraine
as well as neurodegenerative diseases as Alzheimer's disease. (literal)
