Lecrux et al. Impact of altered cholinergic tones on the neurovascular coupling response to whisker stimulation. Journal of Neuroscience (2017), 1784-16. PMID: 28069927 Brain imaging techniques that use vascular signals to map changes in neuronal activity rely on the coupling between electrophysiology and hemodynamics, a phenomenon referred to “neurovascular coupling” (NVC). It is unknown whether […]

Contributed by S C Kelly, P T Nelson, S E Counts Alzheimer’s disease (AD) is a progressive neurodegenerative disorder that most commonly affects individuals over the age of 65. While of unknown etiology, AD is characterized by a steady decline in cognitive functions including memory, attention, executive functions, and language. There is currently no disease-modifying therapy
