This study uncovers the hepatic vagal nerve's influence on circadian food intake, presenting new avenues for obesity ...

Misalignment between the brain’s and liver’s circadian clocks, connected by the HVAN, leads to disordered eating and weight ...

A new study highlights how signals from the liver to the brain influence eating patterns tied to our circadian rhythms.

“We have managed to isolate the activity of individual vagal neurons and identified those that are responsible for either informing the brain about cardiovascular function (afferent neurons) or ...

Disruptions between the brain’s master circadian clock and the liver’s internal clock, communicated via the hepatic afferent vagal nerve (HVAN), can lead to unhealthy eating patterns and increased ...

Researchers at Duke University School of Medicine have found that tapping into the nervous system could help reduce the gut ...

The project, “Afferent Mechanisms of Vagal Neuromodulation ... Thus far, large patient trials of vagal nerve stimulation to treat heart failure have failed despite preclinical evidence of ...

These afferent stimuli, from whatever source ... That the cardio-inhibitory effect of the vagus nerve was markedly reduced, if not entirely abolished, is indicated by the persistently high ...
