A Photo‐Patternable Solid‐State Electrolyte for High‐Performance, Miniaturized, and Implantable Organic Electrochemical Transistor‐Based Circuits

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
A photo‐patternable solid‐state electrolyte based on 𝜄‐carrageenan (𝜄‐CGN) and poly(ethylene glycol) diacrylate (PEGDA) is developed to enable high‐performance complementary OECT circuits. The successful demonstration of fully implanted devices for vagus nerve stimulation in mice highlights solid‐state 𝜄‐CGN‐based electrolytes as a promising platform ...

Vagus Nerve as Modulator of the Brain–Gut Axis in Psychiatric and Inflammatory Disorders

Frontiers in Psychiatry, 2018
The vagus nerve represents the main component of the parasympathetic nervous system, which oversees a vast array of crucial bodily functions, including control of mood, immune response, digestion, and heart rate.

Functional vagotopy in the cervical vagus nerve of the domestic pig: implications for the study of vagus nerve stimulation

Journal of Neural Engineering, 2020
Objective. Given current clinical interest in vagus nerve stimulation (VNS), there are surprisingly few studies characterizing the anatomy of the vagus nerve in large animal models as it pertains to on-and off-target engagement of local fibers. We sought

Autonomous Implants

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
An ideal implant should mimic native tissues such that it can integrate, sense, heal, and continue to function, i.e., be autonomous. Although early, there are good steps taken in this way, e.g., the development of stimuli‐responsive, self‐powering, self‐actuating, self‐healing, self‐regenerating, and self‐aware implants.

Robotic resection of mediastinal left vagus neurofibroma

Monaldi Archives for Chest Disease, 2022
Neurogenic tumors represent 10 to 34% of all mediastinal tumors and among them, neurofibroma originating from the vagus nerve are rare entities. We present a case of a neurofibroma with cystic degeneration originating from the left branch of the vagus ...

Vagus Nerve Schwannoma

Journal of Brown Hospital Medicine
Schwannomas are peripheral nerve tumors that may impact cranial nerves. We present the case of a 21-year-old male with imaging findings consistent with vagal nerve schwannoma with an atypical symptomatic presentation. A review of the presentation, characteristic imaging findings, differential diagnosis, and treatment of vagal nerve schwannoma is ...

The anatomical basis for transcutaneous auricular vagus nerve stimulation

Journal of Anatomy, 2019
The array of end organ innervations of the vagus nerve, coupled with increased basic science evidence, has led to vagus nerve stimulation (VNS) being explored as a management option in a number of clinical disorders, such as heart failure, migraine and ...

Regular versus Irregular Exercise Differentially Modulates Hippocampal‐Hepatic Acetylcholine Flux to Coordinate Fear Memory Extinction and Liver Inflammation

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Ma et al. report the hippocampal and hepatic acetylcholine (ACh) levels are differently modulated by regular versus irregular exercise, which contributes to coordinate hippocampal astrocyte activity and hepatic FBXL6high neutrophil recruitment. This ACh‐modulated brain‐liver circuit links the effects of exercise on fear memory extinction and liver ...

A Peripheral Mechanism of Depression: Disturbed Intestinal Epithelial Per2 Gene Expression Causes Depressive Behaviors in Mice with Circadian Rhythm Disruption via Gut Barrier Damage and Microbiota Dysbiosis

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Circardian rhythm disorder (CRD) causes abnormal expression of intestinal Period 2 (Per2) gene, which compromising intestinal barrier integrity and altering the gut microenvironment. Microbiota dysbiosis and aberrant metabolites production drive central inflammation, impair neurogenesis, and promote functional deficits, ultimately facilitating the ...
