- Abstract
The authors then provide a comprehensive discussion about broadening the range of conditions in which VN-mediated inflammation can be manipulated but refining the specific targets; other approaches such as optogenetics, ultrasound and magnetic stimulation will also expand the utility of neuroimmunomodulation. In their review, Yohei Mikami I et al i . discuss how the vagus nerve (VN) regulates intestinal immunity and how neuroimmune interactions can be targeted in novel therapies for IBD ([5]). The authors discuss the controversial and complex relationship between the VN and intestinal regulatory T cells (Tregs) and the potential role of a liver-brain-gut reflex arc in suppressing intestinal inflammation.
