Journal ArticleDOI

Glial and neuronal control of brain blood flow.

David Attwell, +5 more
- 11 Nov 2010 - 
TL;DR: It is now recognized that neurotransmitter-mediated signalling has a key role in regulating cerebral blood flow, that much of this control is mediated by astrocytes, that oxygen modulates blood flow regulation, and that blood flow may be controlled by capillaries as well as by arterioles.
Journal ArticleDOI

Capillary pericytes regulate cerebral blood flow in health and disease

Catherine N. Hall, +9 more
- 03 Apr 2014 - 
TL;DR: It is demonstrated that neuronal activity and the neurotransmitter glutamate evoke the release of messengers that dilate capillaries by actively relaxing pericytes, which are major regulators of cerebral blood flow and initiators of functional imaging signals.
Journal ArticleDOI

Pathophysiology of the migraine aura. The spreading depression theory.

Martin Lauritzen
- 01 Feb 1994 - 
TL;DR: The combined experimental and clinical studies point to fruitful areas in which to look for migraine treatments of the future and provide a framework within which important aspects of the migraine attack can be modelled.
Journal ArticleDOI

Focal hyperemia followed by spreading oligemia and impaired activation of rcbf in classic migraine

Jes Olesen, +2 more
- 01 Apr 1981 - 
TL;DR: The results indicate that the vasospastic model of the migraine attack is too simplistic and the normal rCBF increase during cortical activity was impaired in 6 patients.
Journal ArticleDOI

Clinical Relevance of Cortical Spreading Depression in Neurological Disorders: Migraine, Malignant Stroke, Subarachnoid and Intracranial Hemorrhage, and Traumatic Brain Injury:

Martin Lauritzen, +5 more
- 01 Jan 2011 - 
TL;DR: Treatment strategies are suggested which may be used to prevent or attenuate secondary neuronal damage in acutely injured human brain cortex caused by depolarization waves, which implicates CSD as a pathophysiological mechanism for this group of acute neurological disorders.
