Cortical microinfarcts caused by single penetrating vessel occlusion lead to widespread reorganization across the entire brain in a CX3CR1 dependent manner

Competing interests References Dementia, and the associated cognitive impairment that goes along with it, have been attributed to a plethora of different mechanisms. As proper brain function is tightly coupled with the on-demand supply of oxygen and nutrients to active areas, perturbation to blood flow and the resulting neurovas-cular uncoupling play a crucial role in the ethology of these pathologies [1, 2, 3], even before the onset of the clinical symptoms [4]. Although research has traditionally focused on systemic and large-scale perturbations such as hypertension and stroke, cortical microinfarcts emerge nowaday ...
