Axons organize into micro-tracts around the cortical vasculature

The paper examines the organization of axons around cortical vasculature in mice, finding that axons form micro-tracts around capillaries, which may facilitate neurovascular coupling.

Impaired capillary-venous drainage contributes to gliosis and demyelination in white matter during aging

The paper shows that impaired capillary-venous drainage in aging mice leads to hypoperfusion, gliosis, and demyelination in deep white matter regions.

Endothelial structure contributes to heterogeneity in brain capillary diameter

The paper examines how endothelial cell structure influences capillary diameter heterogeneity in mouse brain microvasculature using electron microscopy data.

Pericyte remodeling is deficient in the aged brain and contributes to impaired capillary flow and structure

This study shows that pericyte loss in aged brains leads to capillary dilation, flow heterogeneity, and structural disruption, highlighting pericyte remodeling as a therapeutic target.
