Neurovascular coupling, the interplay between neurons and the vasculature, is thought be essential to sustain brain function. This coupling mechanism can be very sensitive to pathologies that Increase Intracranial Pressure (ICP). Head Fixed Body Tilt (HFBT) experiments were conducted in awake mice to induce changes in ICP. Images sensitive to neuronal and vascular responses were acquired during whisker stimulation and rest before, during and after body tilting. Resting state data was used to extract Hemodynamic Responses Functions (HRF) using a double gamma model. Changes in the shape of the HRF were used to assess the impact of potential changes in ICP. We also analyzed resting state imaging data to characterize the potential effects of ICP on hemodynamic responses across brain regions.
