A transverse schematic of a central nervous system (CNS) microvessel shows a capillary lumen with erythrocytes and a leukocyte, surrounded by endothelial cells and a mural pericyte, adjacent to a star-shaped astrocyte extending a perivascular endfoot. In histology and neurovascular physiology, these cells form the neurovascular unit. The illustrated entities are cells within microvascular tissue of the brain. Pericytes regulate capillary caliber and stability, astrocytes support neurons and maintain the blood–brain barrier (BBB), and leukocytes mediate immune surveillance; erythrocytes transport oxygen in circulation.
