Abstract:
The vagus nerve, also known as the pneumogastric nerve, is the tenth pair of cranial nerves, involved in many functions of the body.
The sensory vagus nerve contains chemoreceptors sensitive to the presence of pro-inflammatory cytokines.
It innervates the tissues that are often the first points of contact for foreign pathogens, such as the lining of the esophagus, the gastrointestinal lining, the lungs and lymph nodes.
The vagus nerve also innervates most other important organs of the trunk such as the spleen, liver, heart, bladder, and pancreas.
Keywords: Vagus Nerve, Chronic Fatigue Syndrome, Coronavirus
