Stimulation of the vagus nerve may cause( )A.Enhanced gastrointestinal movement and increased secretion of digestive juicesB.It mainly causes enhancement of gastrointestinal motilityC.Decreased gastrointestinal movement and secretion of digestive juice
Here, we investigated whether stimulation of the vagus nerve, previously shown to have anti-inflammatory effects, would produce anti-nociceptive effects post-surgery. We established a tibial orthopedic surgery as postoperative mice model. This model displayed a strong and long lasting (>3 months) ...
Vagus nerve stimulation (VNS) is thought to affect neural activity by recruiting brain-wide release of neuromodulators. VNS is used in treatment-resistant epilepsy, and is increasingly being explored for other disorders, such as depression, and as a cogn
In terms of physical health, the vagus nerve's role extends to emotional regulation and stress response, where its stimulation can help manage anxiety and mood. Additionally, its connection to the immune system means that stimulating the vagus ...
Fourteen years ago researchers discovered that intermittent electrical stimulation of the vagus nerve produces inhibition of neural processes, which can alter brain electrical activity and terminate seizures in dogs. Since then, approximately 6000 people worldwide have received vagus nerve stimulation for ...
Although the vagus nerve is known to play a vital role in the regulation of food reward-seeking3,12, the modulatory effects of vagal afferent signals on human motivation were largely elusive to date. Here, using non-invasive taVNS, we demonstrate that stimulation of the vagus nerve increases...
Stimulation of the vagus nerve has become an effective method for desynchronizing the highly coherent neural activity typically associated with epileptic seizures. This technique has been used in several animal models of seizures as well as in humans suffering from epilepsy. However, application of thi...
Background The brain and the gut communicate bidirectionally through the autonomic nervous system (ANS). The vagus nerve (VN), a major component of the ANS, plays a key role in the neuro-endocrine-immune axis to maintain homeostasia through its afferents (through the activation of the hypothala...

Summary: Repetitive stimulation of the vagus nerve inhibits chemically induced seizures in dogs. We report here the results and conclusions from studies designed to answer some of the immediate questions raised by this finding. (1) Maximal stimulation of vagal C fibers at frequencies greater than 4...
