What is Vagus Nerve Stimulation (VNS)?

We have examined the gut microbiota, blood-brain barrier (BBB), gut-brain axis, and probiotics in previous articles in relation to neurodegenerative diseases such as Alzheimer’s and Parkinson’s. Let us look at a detailed overview of vagus nerve stimulation (VNS), focusing on its mechanisms, applications, recent research (2020–2025), and connections to the BBB, microbiota, and gut-brain axis. […]

Probiotics for Parkinson’s Disease

Probiotics are proven to slow down the progression of Parkinson’s disease (PD) and alleviate symptoms. Let’s examine the relationship between the gut microbiota, the blood-brain barrier (BBB), the gut-brain axis, and the vagus nerve in Parkinson’s disease, with a focus on its mechanisms, recent research (2020–2025), and connections to the blood-brain barrier (BBB) and vagus […]

Microbiota intestinală

Microbiota intestinală se referă la comunitatea diversă de microorganisme (bacterii, ciuperci, viruși etc.) care locuiesc în tractul gastrointestinal și care influențează profund sănătatea, inclusiv funcția creierului și integritatea barierei. Mai jos, voi oferi o prezentare detaliată a compoziției microbiotei, a funcțiilor, a mecanismelor de interacțiune cu BHE și cu nervul vag, precum și a rezultatelor cercetărilor recente, integrând perspective [...]

Probiotics for Alzheimer’s Disease

This is an overview of probiotics for Alzheimer’s disease (AD), focusing on their mechanisms, recent research (2020–2025), and connections to the BBB (Blood-Brain Barrier) and vagus nerve. Probiotics are live microorganisms that, when administered in adequate amounts, confer health benefits, including potential neuroprotective effects in Alzheimer’s disease (AD). This article integrates insights and relevant findings, […]
