摘要
The neurovascular unit(NVU)is an essential anatomical and physiological entity for the maintenance of brain homeostasis and function;it is composed of endothelial cells,pericytes,astrocytes,neurons,vascular smooth muscle cells,microglia,and oligodendroglia[1].The NVU regulates important brain vessel properties such as the integrity of the blood-brain barrier(BBB)and cerebral blood flow(CBF).Considerable efforts have been made to investigate the cerebral microcirculatory dysfunction in ageing and Alzheimer’s disease(AD)[2].
