Vagus nerve stimulation-induced cognitive enhancement: Hippocampal neuroplasticity in healthy male rats

Vagus nerve stimulation-induced cognitive enhancement: Hippocampal neuroplasticity in healthy male rats

Background: Vagus nerve stimulation (VNS) improves cognition in humans and rodents, but the effects of a single session of VNS on performance and plasticity are not well understood. Objective: Behavioral performance and hippocampal (HC) electrophysiology/neurotrophin expression were measured in heal...
