The hemodynamic response function (HRF), a model of brain blood-flow changes in response to neural activity, reflects communication between neurons and the vasculature that supplies these neurons in part by means of glial cell intermediaries (e.g., astrocytes). Intact neural-vascular communication might play a central role in optimal cognitive performance. This hypothesis can be tested by comparing healthy individuals to those with known white-matter damage and impaired performance, as seen in Multiple Sclerosis (MS). Glial cell intermediaries facilitate the ability of neurons to adequately convey metabolic needs to cerebral vasculature for sufficient oxygen and nutrient perfusion. In this study, we isolated measurements of the HRF that could quantify the extent to which white-matter affects neural-vascular coupling and cognitive performance. HRFs were modeled from multiple brain regions during multiple cognitive tasks using piecewise cubic spline functions, an approach that minimized assumptions regarding HRF shape that may not be valid for diseased populations, and were characterized using two shape metrics (peak amplitude and time-to-peak). Peak amplitude was reduced, and time-to-peak was longer, in MS patients relative to healthy controls. Faster time-to-peak was predicted by faster reaction time, suggesting an important role for vasodilatory speed in the physiology underlying processing speed. These results support the hypothesis that intact neural-glial-vascular communication underlies optimal neural and cognitive functioning. •Intact neural-vascular communication may play a central role in cognitive performance.•Patients with Multiple Sclerosis (MS) are known to have white-matter damage and impaired cognitive performance.•Hemodynamic response function (HRF) shapes of healthy individuals were compared to those of MS patients.•Spline interpolation (minimizing shape assumptions) revealed group differences in both HRF amplitude and time-to-peak (TTP).•Faster performance predicted faster HRF TTP, implicating vasodilatory speed in the physiology underlying cognitive speed.
