Pericyte Contractile Responses to Endothelin-1 and Aβ Peptides: Assessment by Electrical Impedance Assay
Pericytes are vascular mural cells that contract and relax in response to vasoactive stimuli to regulate neurovascular coupling and cerebral blood flow. Pericytes are damaged and degenerate in Alzheimer’s disease (AD). We previously showed that the level of the regulatory vasoconstrictor, endothelin...
