In Adult Rats With Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome, Unilateral or Bilateral Vagotomy Modifies the Noradrenergic Concentration in the Ovaries and the Celiac Superior Mesenteric Ganglia in Different Ways

Frontiers in Physiology, 2019
In rats with polycystic ovarian syndrome (PCOS) induced by estradiol valerate (EV) injection, sectioning of the vagus nerve in the juvenile stage restores ovulatory function, suggesting that the vagus nerve stimulates the onset and development of PCOS ...

Effects of sugammadex on heart rate variability in anesthetized male rats [PDF]

Physiological Reports
The administration of sugammadex has been associated with bradycardia and rarely asystole; however, the underlying mechanisms remain unclear. We examined heart rate variability (HRV) as an index of autonomic nervous system activity and investigated the ...

Protective Effects of Low‐Intensity Pulsed Ultrasound on Cardiac Electrophysiological Function in a Rat Model of Ischemic Cardiomyopathy [PDF]

Journal of the American Heart Association: Cardiovascular and Cerebrovascular Disease
Background Ischemic cardiomyopathy (ICM) is the end stage of ischemic heart disease, in which ventricular remodeling contributes to a fatal ventricular arrhythmia, worsens heart function and unfavorable outcomes, and is related to persistent chronic ...

GLP-1 Increases Circulating Leptin Levels in Truncal Vagotomized Rats

Biomedicines, 2023
GLP-1 is a gastro-intestinal hormone acting within the gut/brain axis for energy balance regulation. We aimed to evaluate the role of the vagus nerve in whole-body energy homeostasis and in mediating GLP-1 effects.

Predominant role of gut-vagus-brain neuronal pathway in postoperative nausea and vomiting: evidence from an observational cohort study

BMC Anesthesiology, 2021
Background Postoperative nausea and vomiting (PONV) as a clinically most common postoperative complication requires multimodal antiemetic medications targeting at a wide range of neurotransmitter pathways. Lacking of neurobiological mechanism makes this ‘
