Axons organize into micro-tracts around the cortical vasculature

Neural activity is metabolically costly and supported by local increases in cerebral blood flow. The process by which neural activity drives blood flow increase, neurovascular coupling (NVC), remains poorly understood. One persistent knowledge gap is how subcellular compartments are arranged at the vascular wall, where local signaling occurs. This requires a survey of the neurovascular interface…
