Abstract:SorCS2 is involved in trafficking of membrane receptors and transporters. SorCS2 is implicated in brain disorders, but the mechanism remains uncertain. We hypothesized that SorCS2 expression is important for neurovascular coupling. Brains from P8 and 2-month-old wild type mice were stained for SorCS2 and compared to SorCS2 knockouts (Sorcs2-/-). Changes in cerebral perfusion in response to sensory stimulation, i.e., neurovascular coupling, were comparedin vivo. Neurovascular coupling was also assessed ex vivo … Show more
