This study shows downstream capillary pericytes express -SMA and regulate blood flow through torsional contractions, challenging the view that capillaries are passive.

This study investigates the role of P2X7 receptors in subcortical spread of cortical spreading depression and neuroinflammation, finding that P2X7 antagonism prevents neuroinflammation and hypothalamic neuronal activation.

This study shows that NUDT6, an antisense protein of FGF2, induces depression-like behavior by promoting inflammation and reducing neurogenesis without affecting FGF2 signaling.

This study shows that disrupting glycogen utilization in mice causes microvascular constrictions and worsens ischemia outcomes.
