Diabetic Ephrin-B2-Stimulated Peripheral Blood Mononuclear Cells Enhance Poststroke Recovery in Mice by Rose Hilal, Marine Poittevin, Adrien Pasteur-Rousseau, Adrien Cogo, Gabrielle Mangin, Marie Chevauché, Yasmine Ziat, José Vilar, Jean-Marie Launay, Jean-François Gautier, Dong Broquères-You, Bernard I. Levy, Tatyana Merkulova-Rainon, Nathalie Kubis

“…We investigated the therapeutic potential of peripheral blood-derived mononuclear cells (PB-MNC) harvested from diabetic patients and stimulated by ephrin-B2 (PB-MNC+) (500,000 cells), injected intravenously 18–24 hours after induced cerebral ischemia in mice. Infarct volume, neurological deficit, neurogenesis, angiogenesis, and inflammation were investigated as were the potential mechanisms of PB-MNC+ cells in poststroke neurorepair. …”

The effect of transcutaneous auricular vagus nerve stimulation on cardiovascular function in subarachnoid hemorrhage patients: A randomized trial by Gansheng Tan, Anna L Huguenard, Kara M Donovan, Phillip Demarest, Xiaoxuan Liu, Ziwei Li, Markus Adamek, Kory Lavine, Ananthv K Vellimana, Terrance T Kummer, Joshua W Osbun, Gregory J Zipfel, Peter Brunner, Eric C Leuthardt

“…Background: Subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH) is characterized by intense central inflammation, leading to substantial post-hemorrhagic complications such as vasospasm and delayed cerebral ischemia. Given the anti-inflammatory effect of transcutaneous auricular vagus nerve stimulation (taVNS) and its ability to promote brain plasticity, taVNS has emerged as a promising therapeutic option for SAH patients. …”
