Grant Activity:
Shedding new light on vagal nerve stimulation
Purpose:
Inflammation is a complex response to injury and overactivation of inflammation can lead to damage to the host. Stimulating the vagus nerve (VNS) is known to have powerful anti-inflammatory effects but the mechanisms are not well understood. We will use cutting-edge molecular tools in a pre-clinical model of inflammation to allow us to selectively target branches of the vagus nerve going to specific organs and will determine the contribution of each organ to the anti-inflammatory effect of VNS.
