A Superlubricated Magnetically Steerable Microcatheter with Integrated Optical and Fluidic Channels

Advanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.
A magnetically steerable microcatheter with integrated optical and fluidic channels is developed for multifunctional navigation in tortuous anatomical environments. A surface‐grafted hydrogel coating enables low‐friction actuation. The device demonstrates stable light and fluid delivery during magnetic manipulation, offering a compact platform for ...

Cortical specificity in neurovascular coupling

Journal of Neurophysiology, 2015
Despite mounting contrary evidence, the metabolic hypothesis is viewed as the predominant theory underlying neurovascular coupling, or the link between neural activity and cerebral blood flow. In a recent study, Huo et al. (Huo BX, Smith JB, Drew PJ.

Altered neurovascular coupling in neuromyelitis optica [PDF]

Human Brain Mapping, 2018
AbstractNeurovascular coupling reflects the close relationship between neuronal activity and cerebral blood flow (CBF), providing a new mechanistic insight into health and disease. Neuromyelitis optica (NMO) is an autoimmune inflammatory demyelinating disease of the central nervous system and shows cognitive decline‐related brain gray matter ...

Cross‐Scale Hierarchical Targeted Delivery System Based on Small‐Scale Magnetic Robots

Advanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.
This article reviews a cross‐scale hierarchical targeted delivery system that integrates magnetic continuum robots and magnetic microrobots. By combining rapid long‐range navigation with precise microscale targeting, the system overcomes key limitations of single‐scale approaches.

Anesthesia and the Quantitative Evaluation of Neurovascular Coupling [PDF]

Journal of Cerebral Blood Flow & Metabolism, 2012
Anesthesia has broad actions that include changing neuronal excitability, vascular reactivity, and other baseline physiologies and eventually modifies the neurovascular coupling relationship. Here, we review the effects of anesthesia on the spatial propagation, temporal dynamics, and quantitative relationship between the neural and vascular responses ...

GPR124 Alleviates Blood–Brain Barrier Disruption by Enhancing Microvascular Endothelial Function after Traumatic Brain Injury

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Our study reveals the protective role of GPR124 in maintaining BBB integrity and promoting neurological recovery following TBI. It makes a significant contribution by uncovering a novel molecular interaction between GPR124 and FGFBP1 and linking this to activation of the Wnt/β‐catenin signaling pathway in vascular repair mechanisms.

Developing Methodologies to Explore Neurovascular Coupling on a Micron Scale [PDF]

, 2016
During brain activity, local oxygen and glucose is consumed and cerebral blood flow (CBF) increases in a process known as functional hyperemia or neurovascular coupling.

Is There a Persistent Dysfunction of Neurovascular Coupling in Migraine? [PDF]

BioMed Research International, 2015
Changes in cerebral blood flow are one of the main features of migraine attack and have inspired the vascular theory of migraine. This traditional view has been reshaped with recent experimental data, which gave rise to the neural theory of migraine. In this review, we speculate that there might be an important link between the two theories, that is ...

Modulation of miR‐23b Wnt/β‐catenin Axis Strengthens Endothelial Barrier Properties

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Early blood‐brain barrier (BBB) disruption contributes to stroke and CNS disease pathology. miR‐23b was identified as a regulator of BBB integrity in brain endothelial cells. Inhibition of miR‐23b enhanced barrier‐associated properties, promoted repair‐related signaling, and reduced BBB leakage in experimental stroke models, supporting further ...
