Select microbial metabolites in the small intestinal lumen regulates vagal activity via receptor-mediated signaling by Kelly G. Jameson, Sabeen A. Kazmi, Takahiro E. Ohara, Celine Son, Kristie B. Yu, Donya Mazdeyasnan, Emma Leshan, Helen E. Vuong, Jorge Paramo, Arlene Lopez-Romero, Long Yang, Felix E. Schweizer, Elaine Y. Hsiao

“…We find that mice reared germ-free exhibit decreased vagal tone relative to colonized controls, which is reversed via microbiota restoration. Perfusing antibiotics into the small intestines of conventional mice, but not germ-free mice, acutely decreases vagal activity which is restored upon re-perfusion with intestinal filtrates from conventional, but not germ-free, mice. …”
