The role of inhibitory G proteins and regulators of G protein signaling in the in vivo control of heart rate and predisposition to cardiac arrhythmias [PDF]
Inhibitory heterotrimeric G proteins and the control of heart rate. The activation of cell signaling pathways involving inhibitory heterotrimeric G proteins acts to slow the heart rate via modulation of ion channels.

Vagal nerve stimulation for epilepsy [PDF]
Editor,—It is timely that “Archivist” has taken an interest in vagal nerve stimulation for epilepsy. The comments do not suggest however that Archivist was fully informed. It is true to say that the mechanism by which the effect is achieved is not known, but there is considerable animal evidence that both serotoninergic and noradrenergic pathways from

Pathology influences blood pressure change following vagal stimulation in an animal intubation model. [PDF]
PURPOSE: The haemodynamic response to critical care intubation is influenced by the use of sedation and relaxant drugs and the activation of the vagal reflex.

Vagal Nerve Stimulation Induces Intermittent Hypocapnia [PDF]
Summary: Purpose: To study whether respiratory alteration caused by vagal nerve stimulation (VNS) can change end‐tidal carbon dioxide (EtCO2) levels. Methods: We performed polygraphic recordings including capnographic monitoring during daytime sleep on adults with VNS therapy.

Dormant cancer cells can hide in distant organs for years, evading treatment and the immune system. This review highlights how signals from the surrounding tissue and immune environment keep these cells inactive or trigger their reawakening. Understanding these mechanisms may help develop therapies to eliminate or control dormant cells and prevent ...

This review provides an overview of triboelectric nanogenerator (TENG)–based biomedical applications by classifying studies into electronic and ionic systems across attachable and implantable platforms. It summarizes key material choices, device structures, and working mechanisms that characterize current TENG‐based research, and outlines six future ...

Captopril Enhances Cardiac Vagal but Not Sympathetic Neurotransmission in Pithed Rats
The effect of captopril on neurally evoked bradycardia and tachycardia was investigated in pithed rats. Captopril enhanced the vagal nerve stimulation-evoked bradycardia.

Combined approach of electromagnetic (Power) and ultrasound (data harvesting) waves is proposed to address the miniaturized ultrasonic implants. Electromagnetic waves trigger the piezoelectric element to generate the acoustic pulse which is modulated by the variations in the sensor's impedance.
