Simon, T., Kirk, J., Dolezalova, N., Guyot, M., Panzolini, C., Bondue, A., Lavergne, J., Hugues, S., Hypolite, N., Saeb-Parsy, K., Perkins, J., Macia, E., Sridhar, A., Vervoordeldonk, M., Glaichenhaus, N., Donega, M., & Blancou, P. (2023). The cholinergic anti-inflammatory pathway inhibits inflammation without lymphocyte relay. Frontiers in Neuroscience, 17, https://doi.org/10.3389/fnins.2023.1125492

The magnitude of innate inflammatory immune responses is dependent on interactions between peripheral neural and immune cells. In particular, a cholinergic anti-inflammatory pathway (CAP) has been identified in the spleen whereby noradrenaline (NA) r...

Objectives: The aim of the study was to increase muscle volume and improve phonation characteristics of the aged ovine larynx by functional electrical stimulation (FES) using a minimally invasive surgical procedure. Methods: Stimulation electrodes we... Read More about Bilateral Functional Electrical Stimulation for the Treatment of Presbyphonia in a Sheep Model.

Organotopic organization of the porcine mid-cervical vagus nerve (2023)
Journal Article
Thompson, N., Ravagli, E., Mastitskaya, S., Iacoviello, F., Stathopoulou, T., Perkins, J., Shearing, P., Aristovich, K., & Holder, D. (2023). Organotopic organization of the porcine mid-cervical vagus nerve. Frontiers in Neuroscience, 17, https://doi.org/10.3389/fnins.2023.963503

IntroductionDespite detailed characterization of fascicular organization of somatic nerves, the functional anatomy of fascicles evident in human and large mammal cervical vagus nerve is unknown. The vagus nerve is a prime target for intervention in t... Read More about Organotopic organization of the porcine mid-cervical vagus nerve.
