Uncovering the impact of the cardiovascular system on cerebrovascular health using MRI

open access: yesExperimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Human cerebrovasculature is finely tuned to enable local changes in blood flow to meet the brain's demands, whilst protecting the brain from systemic changes in blood pressure, both acutely during a heartbeat and chronically over time. This review summarises cerebrovascular structure and function, their role in disease and neurodegeneration ...

Impaired Windkessel function and proximal aortic stiffness: Linking vascular ageing to cognitive decline

open access: yesExperimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Central arterial stiffening, particularly of the proximal aorta, is increasingly recognised as a pivotal contributor to cardiovascular disease, dementia, and mild cognitive impairment. Loss of Windkessel function amplifies pulsatile pressure, reduces diastolic perfusion and accelerates microvascular damage in the brain.

Lower cerebral blood flow but not cerebrovascular response in elastin haploinsufficient mice

open access: yesExperimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Elastin insufficiency is associated with structural differences in the large elastic arteries and cerebral artery dysfunction. However, previous studies have not assessed potential sex differences in cerebrovascular function. We measured cerebral blood flow (CBF) using arterial spin labeling MRI at rest and in response to hypercapnia challenge

Cerebrovascular regulation during heat stress

open access: yesExperimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Given that the brain is a highly metabolic organ and is enclosed by the skull, effective regulation of cerebral blood flow (CBF), not only for oxygen and nutrients supply but also as a means of convective heat exchange, is critical for preventing excessive elevations in brain temperature.

Cerebral blood flow regulation, central arterial stiffness and traumatic brain injury: Effects of aerobic exercise training

open access: yesExperimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Advanced age is the strongest risk factor for Alzheimer's disease and related dementias (ADRDs). Traumatic brain injury (TBI) has also been recognized as a risk factor for ADRD, potentially contributing to an earlier onset of the disease. Thus, elucidating the mechanisms underlying brain ageing and TBI is critical for developing strategies to ...

Effect of a single exercise bout on fasting cerebral blood flow and brain insulin sensitivity in middle‐aged to older adults

open access: yesExperimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Reductions in brain insulin sensitivity and cerebral blood flow (CBF) have emerged as potential factors contributing to Alzheimer's disease and related dementia. However, no work has tested whether a single bout of exercise can raise brain insulin sensitivity in at‐risk adults. The aim of the study was to test whether a single bout of exercise
