We performed pharmacological and electrical vagus nerve stimulation in a rat model of VILI following ischemia\/reperfusion injury. To determine the contribution of the alpha 7 acetylcholine nicotinic receptor to pulmonary cell injury, we exposed human bronchial epithelial cells to cyclic stretch in the presence of specific agonist or antagonist of the alpha 7 receptor.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Measurements and Main Results<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Vagotomy exacerbates lung injury from VILI in mice as demonstrated by increased wet-to-dry ratio, infiltration of neutrophils, and increased IL-6. Vagal stimulation attenuates lung injury in rats after ischemia\/reperfusion injury ventilated with high-volume strategies. Treatment of both mice and rats with the vagus mimetic drug semapimod resulted in decreased lung injury. Vagotomy also increased pulmonary apoptosis, whereas vagus stimulation (electrical and pharmacological) attenuated VILI-induced apoptosis. In vitro studies suggest that vagus-dependent effects on inflammation and apoptosis are mediated via the \u03b17 nicotinc acetylcholine receptor\u2013dependent effects on cyclic stretch\u2013dependent signaling pathways c-jun N-terminal kinase and tumor necrosis factor receptor superfamily, member 6.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n
