Microglia modulate cerebral blood flow and neurovascular coupling through ectonucleotidase CD39
Microglia and the border-associated macrophages (BAMs) contribute to the modulation of cerebral blood flow (CBF), but the mechanisms have remained ill-defined. Here, we show that microglia regulate the CBF baseline and upsurges after whisker stimulation or intracisternal magna injection of adenosine triphosphate (ATP). Genetic or pharmacological depletion of microglia reduces the activity-dependent hyperemia but not the cerebrovascular responses to adenosine stimulation. Notably, microglia repopulation corrects these CBF reactivity deficits. The microglial-dependent regulation of CBF requires the ATP-sensing P2ry12 receptor and the ectonucleotidase CD39 that initiates the breakdown of extracellular ATP. Pharmacological inhibition or microglia-specific deletion of CD39 simulates the CBF anomalies detected in microglia-deficient mice and reduces the rise of extracellular adenosine after whisker stimulation. Together, these results suggest that the microglial CD39-initiated conversion of extracellular ATP to adenosine is an important step in neurovascular coupling and the regulation of cerebrovascular reactivity.
