Vagus nerve stimulation primes platelets and reduces bleeding in hemophilia A male mice

open access: yesNature Communications, 2023
Deficiency of coagulation factor VIII in hemophilia A disrupts clotting and prolongs bleeding. While the current mainstay of therapy is infusion of factor VIII concentrates, inhibitor antibodies often render these ineffective.

Modulation of Neurally Mediated Vasodepression and Bradycardia by Electroacupuncture through Opioids in Nucleus Tractus Solitarius. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Stimulation of vagal afferent endings with intravenous phenylbiguanide (PBG) causes both bradycardia and vasodepression, simulating neurally mediated syncope.

Wake-promoting effects of vagus nerve stimulation after traumatic brain injury: upregulation of orexin-A and orexin receptor type 1 expression in the prefrontal cortex

open access: yesNeural Regeneration Research, 2018
Orexins, produced in the lateral hypothalamus, are important neuropeptides that participate in the sleep/wake cycle, and their expression coincides with the projection area of the vagus nerve in the brain.

Average reference recording from the vagal nerve reveals an evoked indirect response [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
The vagal nerve conveys information from and to many organs, including the heart. The components of the compound action potentials (CAPs) recorded from the vagal nerve give information about the different fiber types present.

Vagus nerve stimulation promotes resolution of inflammation by a mechanism that involves Alox15 and requires the α7nAChR subunit

open access: yesProceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America, 2022
Significance Resolution of inflammation is an active process that restores tissue homeostasis and prevents the development of chronic inflammatory diseases. The mechanisms that regulate resolution of inflammation are only partially understood.

Device for electrical stimulation of the vagus nerve [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
A device for auricular electrical stimulation of the vagus nerve was developed. The advantage of the developed product is the possibility of changing the shape of the stimulation signal, setting the duration of the stimulation session and monitoring the ...

Selective stimulation of the ferret abdominal vagus nerve with multi-contact nerve cuff electrodes

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2021
Dysfunction and diseases of the gastrointestinal (GI) tract are a major driver of medical care. The vagus nerve innervates and controls multiple organs of the GI tract and vagus nerve stimulation (VNS) could provide a means for affecting GI function and ...
