This was indicated by lower venular flicker-induced dilation (vFID), narrower central retinal artery equivalent (CRAE), and lower arteriolar-venular ratio (AVR).

✅ #Pericytes have #PrimaryCilia with an arterio-venular gradient🏳️🌈
✅ 🚶♀️🧠 ECs have primary #cilia, 🐁🧠 ECs don’t
✅ EC polarity aligns opposite to #BloodFlow 🧭
❔Lots of open questions about cilia’s role in #NeurovascularCoupling!

These venular vessels express CXCL12 that attracts CD8+ T cells via CXCR4 in the plaque
This may unlock new cardiovascular therapy #Atherosclerosis #Chemokines

Venular mural cells: up to 90% ciliated in 🐁 datasets!
Arteriolar mural cells: almost none.
Why this gradient? Flow, pressure, permeability?
