Neuronal Correlates of BOLD

This study explores the relationship between brain activity and BOLD signals in functional MRI, investigating factors influencing the BOLD response and mediating neurovascular coupling mechanisms. The research delves into the roles of neurons, hemodynamics, and mediators like astrocytes and metabolic factors in BOLD signal interpretation.

  26. Flow modulation is not necessarily the same as BOLD modulation

  27. Mediators of neurovascular coupling There isnot just one coupling mechanism. Mediators differ between brain regions NO is a mediator in the cerebellar cortex, but only a permissive factor in the somatosensory cortex Astrocytes may link synaptic activity to vascular response via Glutamate-induced Ca elevation and release of vasodilators at perivascular endfeets Metabolic factors (adenosine, pH, lactate, CO2) may act posthoc for finer long-term adjustment (not much relevance for BOLD!?)
