Vagus Nerve Stimulation Ameliorates Renal Ischemia-Reperfusion Injury through Inhibiting NF-<i>κ</i>B Activation and iNOS Protein Expression

Abstract

Our findings indicate that NF-<i>κ</i>B activation increased iNOS expression and promoted RIRI and that VNS treatment attenuated RIRI by inhibiting iNOS expression, oxidative stress, and inflammation via NF-<i>κ</i>B inactivation.<i>κ</i>B (NF-<i>κ</i>B (NF.
