Inhibitory Interneurons Modulate Neurovascular Coupling Primarily Through Indirect Circuit Mechanisms

Neurovascular coupling (NVC) links neuronal activity to local hemodynamics, underlies functional imaging signals such as fMRI, and is often disrupted in neurological disorders. Although inhibitory interneurons can directly signal to blood vessels, their relative contribution to NVC during sensory processing remains unc...
