Article Title: Cholinergic basal forebrain neurons regulate vascular dynamics and cerebrospinal fluid flux

doi: 10.1101/2024.08.25.609536

Figure Lengend Snippet: a) An immunotoxin, p75-saporin, which targets the p75 neurotrophin receptor-expressing cholinergic neurons was injected into the medial septum (MS) of the mouse basal forebrain. This resulted in significant reduction of cholinergic neurons (green fluorescence) and their density in the MS compared to that of sham mice injected with the non-targeted IgG-saporin. b) 3-4 weeks after the surgery, resting-state fMRI was conducted using a 9.4T MRI to measure the cortical BOLD (dash line) and ventricular CSF inflow (solid line) signals. c) The cross-correlation between the cortical BOLD and CSF signals shows anticorrelation at 0 lag time in both sham and lesioned mice. However, the anticorrelation between the regional BOLD and CSF signals were abolished in the lesioned mice in the hippocampus, which receives the MS cholinergic projection, but not in the cortex. Error bars represent the SEM. d) The cortical BOLD signal coupling with the CSF signal (top) and fluctuation amplitude (bottom) were comparable between the lesioned and sham mice. e) In the hippocampus, however, the hippocampal BOLD-CSF coupling strength was reduced toward 0, with the BOLD signal amplitude showed a trend of decrease. f) The hippocampal BOLD-CSF coupling, BOLD signal amplitude, and the lag time of maximal anticorrelation between the BOLD and CSF signals, were all significantly correlated with the p75-positive cholinergic neuron density of the MS of the imaged mice.

Article Snippet: Immunofluorescence labeling of the cholinergic cells were stained with primary goat anti-p75 antibody (1:400, AF1157, R&D Systems) overnight at room temperature.
