New Insights Into Human Gut-Brain Connection Revealed in Pioneering Research — A pioneering study conduct |
Researchers at the Laureate Institute for Brain Research have made breakthroughs in understanding the gut-brain connection using a novel vibrating capsule for gastrointestinal stimulation. The study, published in Nature Communications, suggests the potential for a revolutionized approach to gut-brain disorders, including personalized treatments and predictive markers for interventions.
The researchers also discovered the “gastric evoked potential,” a late neural response in certain areas of the brain specifically induced by capsule stimulation. These neural responses increased in amplitude depending on the intensity of the stimulation and were significantly correlated with perceptual accuracy. This discovery provides a new way to measure and understand the neural processes governing the gut-brain connection.
“The potential clinical implications for the results of this study are substantial,” said Dr. Khalsa. “The vibrating capsule method could transform the clinical approach to disorders of gut-brain interaction, including eating disorders and certain gastrointestinal disorders such as irritable bowel syndrome or functional dyspepsia.”
