The vagus nerve at the interface of the microbiota-gut-brain axis

The microbiota-gut-brain axis facilitates bidirectional communication between the gut microbiota and the brain, primarily mediated by the vagus nerve (VN), a crucial component of the parasympathetic nervous system. Comprising 80% afferent and 20% efferent fibers, the VN plays a pivotal role in interoceptive awareness, sensing microbiota metabolites and conveying this information to the central nervous […]
