Control of the neurovascular coupling by nitric oxide-dependent regulation of astrocytic Ca(2+) signaling

Neuronal activity must be tightly coordinated with blood flow to keep proper brain function, which is achieved by a mechanism known as neurovascular coupling. Then, an increase in synaptic activity leads to a dilation of local parenchymal arterioles that matches the enhanced metabolic demand. Neurov...
