Local activation of α2 adrenergic receptors is required for vagus nerve stimulation induced motor cortical plasticity

Abstract Vagus nerve stimulation (VNS) paired with rehabilitation training is emerging as a potential treatment for improving recovery of motor function following stroke. In rats, VNS paired with skilled forelimb training results in significant reorganization of the somatotopic cortical motor map; h...
