Mild subcortical stroke induces widespread astrogliosis independent of microglia and age

Teresa L. Stackhouse, Bradley D. Marxmiller, Steve J. Sullivan…·Anusha Mishra

The paper introduces a novel mouse model of mild subcortical stroke and shows that astrogliosis spreads widely and independently of microglia and age.

Increased 20-HETE signaling suppresses neurovascular coupling after ischemic stroke in regions beyond the infarct

Zhenzhou Li, Heather McConnell, Teresa L. Stackhouse…·Anusha Mishra

This study identifies 20-HETE-dependent vasoconstriction as a mechanism impairing neurovascular coupling after stroke, showing that inhibiting its synthesis can restore blood flow in peri-infarct regions.

Spatially-mapped single-cell chromatin accessibility

Casey A. Thornton, Ryan M. Mulqueen, Kristof A. Torkenczy…·Andrew Adey

The paper introduces sciMAP-ATAC, a method for spatially resolved single-cell chromatin accessibility profiling, and applies it to study cortical lamination, spatial trajectories, and ischemic infarct progression in mouse and human tissues.
