Abstract Exploring how the emergent functional connectivity (FC) relates to the underlying anatomy (structural connectivity, SC) is one of the major goals of modern neuroscience. At the macroscale level, no one-to-one correspondence between structural and functional links seems to exist. And we posit that to better understand their coupling, two key aspects should be considered: the directionality of the structural connectome and limitations in explaining networks functions through an undirected measure such as FC. Here, we employed an accurate directed SC of the mouse brain acquired through viral tracers and compared it with single-subject effective connectivity (EC) matrices derived from a dynamic causal model (DCM) applied to whole-brain resting-state fMRI data. We analyzed how SC deviates from EC and quantified their respective couplings by conditioning on the strongest SC links and EC links. We found that when conditioning on the strongest EC links, the obtained coupling follows the unimodal-transmodal functional hierarchy. Whereas the reverse is not true, as there are strong SC links within high-order cortical areas with no corresponding strong EC links. This mismatch is even more clear across networks; only within sensory motor networks did we observe connections that align in terms of both effective and structural strength. |
