Vagus nerve stimulation inhibits pyroptosis and improves outcome of cerebral ischemic stroke by upregulating osteopontin (SPP1) to disturb ASC oligomerization

Abstract Background Vagus nerve stimulation (VNS) brings new hope for handling stroke. Our previous study confirmed that VNS could reduce neuronal pyroptosis and improve stroke prognosis. However, how VNS suppresses pyroptosis remains poorly understood. Osteopontin (OPN,SPP1) plays a neuroprotective...
