Abstract
Electrical stimulation is an effective tool for mapping and altering brain connectivity, with applications ranging from treating pharmacology-resistant neurological disorders to providing sensory feedback for neural prostheses. Paramount to the success of these applications is the ability to manipulate electrical currents to precisely control evoked neural activity patterns. However, little is known about stimulation-evoked responses in inhibitory neurons nor how stimulation-evoked activity patterns depend on ongoing neural activity. In this study, we used 2-photon imaging and cell-type specific labeling to measure single-cell responses of excitatory and inhibitory neurons to electrical stimuli in the visual cortex of awake mice. Our data revealed strong interactions between electrical stimulation and pre-stimulus activity of single neurons in awake animals and distinct recruitment and response patterns for excitatory and inhibitory neurons. This work demonstrates the importance of cell-type-specific labeling of neurons in future studies.

Potential therapeutic mechanism of deep brain stimulation of the nucleus accumbens in obsessive-compulsive disorder. Front Cell Neurosci 2023; 16:1057887. [PMID: 36687525 PMCID: PMC9845878 DOI: 10.3389/fncel.2022.1057887] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/30/2022] [Accepted: 12/12/2022] [Indexed: 01/05/2023] Open
Abstract
Deep brain stimulation (DBS) of the nucleus accumbens (NAc) (NAc-DBS) is an effective solution to refractory obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD). However, evidence for the neurobiological mechanisms of OCD and the effect of NAc-DBS is still lacking. One hypothesis is that the electrophysiological activities in the NAc are modulated by DBS, and another hypothesis is that the activities of neurotransmitters in the NAc are influenced by DBS. To investigate these potential alterations, rats with quinpirole (QNP)- induced OCD were treated with DBS of the core part of NAc. Then, extracellular spikes (SPK) and local field potentials (LFP) in the NAc were recorded, and the levels of relevant neurotransmitters and related proteins were measured. Analysis of SPK revealed that the firing rate was decreased and the firing pattern was changed after NAc-DBS, and analysis of LFP showed that overall power spectral density (PSD) levels were reduced after NAc-DBS. Additionally, we found that the relative powers of the theta band, alpha band and beta band were increased in OCD status, while the relative powers of the delta band and gamma band were decreased. This pathological pattern of power distribution was reformed by NAc-DBS. Furthermore, we found that the local levels of monoamines [dopamine (DA) and serotonin (5-HT)] and amino acids [glutamate (Glu) and gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA)] in the NAc were increased in OCD status, and that the expression of the two types of DA receptors in the NAc exhibited an opposite change. These abnormalities could be reversed by NAc-DBS. These findings provide a more comprehensive understanding about the function of the NAc in the pathophysiology of OCD and provide more detailed evidence for the potential effect of NAc-DBS.

Neuroplasticity and Multilevel System of Connections Determine the Integrative Role of Nucleus Accumbens in the Brain Reward System. Int J Mol Sci 2021; 22:ijms22189806. [PMID: 34575969 PMCID: PMC8471564 DOI: 10.3390/ijms22189806] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/08/2021] [Revised: 09/06/2021] [Accepted: 09/08/2021] [Indexed: 12/27/2022] Open
Abstract
A growing body of evidence suggests that nucleus accumbens (NAc) plays a significant role not only in the physiological processes associated with reward and satisfaction but also in many diseases of the central nervous system. Summary of the current state of knowledge on the morphological and functional basis of such a diverse function of this structure may be a good starting point for further basic and clinical research. The NAc is a part of the brain reward system (BRS) characterized by multilevel organization, extensive connections, and several neurotransmitter systems. The unique role of NAc in the BRS is a result of: (1) hierarchical connections with the other brain areas, (2) a well-developed morphological and functional plasticity regulating short- and long-term synaptic potentiation and signalling pathways, (3) cooperation among several neurotransmitter systems, and (4) a supportive role of neuroglia involved in both physiological and pathological processes. Understanding the complex function of NAc is possible by combining the results of morphological studies with molecular, genetic, and behavioral data. In this review, we present the current views on the NAc function in physiological conditions, emphasizing the role of its connections, neuroplasticity processes, and neurotransmitter systems.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Deep brain stimulation is an established therapy for several neurological disorders; however, its effects on neuronal activity vary across brain regions and depend on stimulation settings. Understanding these variable responses can aid in the development of physiologically-informed stimulation paradigms in existing or prospective indications. OBJECTIVE Provide experimental and computational insights into the brain-region-specific and frequency-dependent effects of extracellular stimulation on neuronal activity. METHODS In patients with movement disorders, single-neuron recordings were acquired from the subthalamic nucleus, substantia nigra pars reticulata, ventral intermediate nucleus, or reticular thalamus during microstimulation across various frequencies (1-100 Hz) to assess single-pulse and frequency-response functions. Moreover, a biophysically-realistic computational framework was developed which generated postsynaptic responses under the assumption that electrical stimuli simultaneously activated all convergent presynaptic inputs to stimulation target neurons. The framework took into consideration the relative distributions of excitatory/inhibitory afferent inputs to model site-specific responses, which were in turn embedded within a model of short-term synaptic plasticity to account for stimulation frequency-dependence. RESULTS We demonstrated microstimulation-evoked excitatory neuronal responses in thalamic structures (which have predominantly excitatory inputs) and inhibitory responses in basal ganglia structures (predominantly inhibitory inputs); however, higher stimulation frequencies led to a loss of site-specificity and convergence towards neuronal suppression. The model confirmed that site-specific responses could be simulated by accounting for local neuroanatomical/microcircuit properties, while suppression of neuronal activity during high-frequency stimulation was mediated by short-term synaptic depression. CONCLUSIONS Brain-region-specific and frequency-dependant neuronal responses could be simulated by considering neuroanatomical (local microcircuitry) and neurophysiological (short-term plasticity) properties.

Electrical cortical stimulations modulate spike and post-spike slow-related high-frequency activities in human epileptic foci. Clin Neurophysiol 2020; 131:1741-1754.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Using interictal epileptiform discharges (IEDs), consisting of spikes and post-spike slow waves (PSSs), and IED-related high-frequency activities (HFAs), we elucidated inhibitory effects of electrical cortical stimulation (ECS) on human epileptic foci. METHODS We recruited 8 patients with intractable focal epilepsy, and 50-Hz ECS was applied to the seizure-onset zone (SOZ) and non-SOZ. Before (5-min) and after (20-min) ECS, we evaluated the number of IED, the amplitudes of spikes and PSSs, spike-related HFA power, and PSS-related low gamma (30-50 Hz) activities. RESULTS SOZ stimulation significantly decreased the number of IEDs and amplitude of spikes. Spike-related HFA power values in fast ripple (200-300 Hz) and ripple (80-150 Hz) bands were significantly suppressed only by SOZ stimulation in 4 and 3 patients, respectively. Among 4 patients with discrete PSSs, the amplitude ratio of spike/PSS decreased and the PSS-related low gamma activity power increased significantly in 2 patients and marginally in 1 patient. CONCLUSIONS ECS potentially modulates cortical excitability by reducing excitation and increasing inhibition, and monitoring IED-related HFAs may help achieve the optimal effects of ECS. SIGNIFICANCE IED and IED-related HFAs are dynamic, potential surrogate markers for epileptic excitability during the interictal period.

Abstract
When designing electrodes and probes for brain–machine interfaces, one of the challenges faced involves minimizing the brain-tissue response, which would otherwise create an environment that is detrimental for the accurate functioning of such probes. Following the implantation process, the brain reacts with a sterile inflammation response and resulting astrocytic glial scar formation, potentially resulting in neuronal cell loss around the implantation site. Such alterations in the naïve brain tissue can hinder both the quality of neuronal recordings, and the efficacy of deep-brain stimulation. In this study, we chronically implanted a glass-supported polyimide microelectrode in the dorsolateral striatum of Sprague–Dawley rats. The effect of high-frequency stimulation (HFS) was investigated using c-fos immunoreactivity techniques. GFAP and ED1 immunohistochemistry were used to analyze the brain-tissue response. No changes in c-fos expression were found for either the acute or chronic stimulus groups; although a c-fos expression was found along the length of the implantation trajectory, following chronic implantation of our stiffened polyimide microelectrode. Furthermore, we also observed the formation of a glial scar around the microelectrode, with an accompanying low number of inflammation cells. Histological and statistical analysis of NeuN-positive cells did not demonstrate a pronounced “kill zone” with accompanying neuronal cell death around the implantation site, neither on the polymer side, nor on the glass side of the PI-glass probe.

Abstract
Modern electroceuticals are bound to employ the usage of electrical high frequency (130-180 Hz) stimulation carried out under closed loop control, most prominent in the case of movement disorders. However, particular challenges are faced when electrical recordings of neuronal tissue are carried out during high frequency electrical stimulation, both in-vivo and in-vitro. This stimulation produces undesired artifacts and can render the recorded signal only partially useful. The extent of these artifacts is often reduced by temporarily grounding the recording input during stimulation pulses. In the following study, we quantify the effects of this method, "blanking," on the spike count and spike train statistics. Starting from a theoretical standpoint, we calculate a loss in the absolute number of action potentials, depending on: width of the blanking window, frequency of stimulation, and intrinsic neuronal activity. These calculations were then corroborated by actual high signal to noise ratio (SNR) single cell recordings. We state that, for clinically relevant frequencies of 130 Hz (used for movement disorders) and realistic blanking windows of 2 ms, up to 27% of actual existing spikes are lost. We strongly advice cautioned use of the blanking method when spike rate quantification is attempted. Impact statement Blanking (artifact removal by temporarily grounding input), depending on recording parameters, can lead to significant spike loss. Very careful use of blanking circuits is advised.

Abstract
Both the subthalamic nucleus (STN) and the globus pallidus pars interna (GPi) are major targets for neuromodulation therapy for movement disorders. An example of such a therapy is deep brain stimulation (DBS). The striatum is the primary target for pharmacological treatment of these disorders. To further our understanding of both the functional relationships among motor nuclei and the mechanisms of therapies for movement disorders, it is important to clarify how changing the neuronal activity of one target, either by medication or by artificial electrical stimulation, affects the other connected nuclei. To investigate this point, we recorded single-unit activity from tonically active neurons (TANs), which are putative cholinergic interneurons in the striatum, of healthy monkeys (Macaca fuscata) during electrical stimulation of the STN or GPi. Both STN stimulation and GPi stimulation reduced the TAN spike rate. Local infusion of a D2 receptor antagonist in the striatum blocked the reduction in spike rate induced by STN stimulation but not that induced by GPi stimulation. Further, STN stimulation induced phasic dopamine release in the striatum as revealed by in vivo fast-scan cyclic voltammetry. These results suggest the presence of multiple, strong functional relationships among the STN, GPi, and striatum that have different pathways and imply distinct therapeutic mechanisms for STN- and GPi-DBS.

Abstract
Ethanol is a vasoactive agent as well as psychoactive drug. The neurovascular response, coupled with neuronal activity, can be disturbed by alcohol intake. Hence, blood oxygenation level-dependent (BOLD) fMRI, which relies on neurovascular coupling, might not be reliable to reflect alcohol-induced neuronal responses. Recently, diffusion fMRI has been shown to be more sensitive to neural activity than BOLD fMRI even when neurovascular coupling is disrupted. Especially, the apparent diffusion coefficient (ADC) is sensitive to changes occurring in the cellular tissue structure upon activation. In the present study, we compared BOLD fMRI signals, ADC, and local field potentials (LFPs) in the nucleus accumbens (NAc) following injection of an ethanol solution (0.4 g/kg body weight) in rats under medetomidine anesthesia. An increase in the gamma oscillation power of LFP and an ADC decrease were observed 5 min after the injection of EtOH. The BOLD signals showed a negative slow drift, similar to mean arterial pressure with a peak approximately 10 min after the injection. These results confirm that DfMRI can be a better marker of the neuronal activity than BOLD fMRI, especially when the brain hemodynamic status is changed by vasoactive drugs such as ethanol.

Abstract
Neuro-stimulation techniques have gradually evolved over the decades and have emerged potential therapeutic modalities for the treatment of psychiatric disorders, especially treatment refractory cases. The neuro-stimulation techniques involves modalities like electroconvulsive therapy (ECT), repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS), transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS), vagus nerve stimulation (VNS) and others. This review discusses the role of neuro-stimulation techniques in the treatment of anxiety disorders. The various modalities of neuro-stimulation techniques are briefly discussed. The evidence base relating to use of these techniques in the treatment of anxiety disorders is discussed further. The review then highlights the challenges in conducting research in relation to the use of neuro-stimulation techniques with reference to patients with anxiety disorders. The review provides the future directions of research and aimed at expanding the evidence base of treatment of anxiety disorders and providing neuro-stimulation techniques as promising effective and acceptable alternative in select cases.

Sci Rep 2016; 6:31613. [PMID: 27601003 PMCID: PMC5013271 DOI: 10.1038/srep31613] [Citation(s) in RCA: 23] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.9] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/15/2016] [Accepted: 07/25/2016] [Indexed: 01/16/2023] Open
Abstract
Deep brain stimulation of the nucleus accumbens (NAc-DBS) is an emerging therapy for diverse, refractory neuropsychiatric diseases. Although DBS therapy is broadly hypothesized to work through large-scale neural modulation, little is known regarding the neural circuits and networks affected by NAc-DBS. Using a healthy, sedated rat model of NAc-DBS, we employed both evoked- and functional connectivity (fc) MRI to examine the functional circuit and network changes achieved by electrical NAc stimulation. Optogenetic-fMRI experiments were also undertaken to evaluate the circuit modulation profile achieved by selective stimulation of NAc neurons. NAc-DBS directly modulated neural activity within prefrontal cortex and a large number of subcortical limbic areas (e.g., amygdala, lateral hypothalamus), and influenced functional connectivity among sensorimotor, executive, and limbic networks. The pattern and extent of circuit modulation measured by evoked-fMRI was relatively insensitive to DBS frequency. Optogenetic stimulation of NAc cell bodies induced a positive fMRI signal in the NAc, but no other detectable downstream responses, indicating that therapeutic NAc-DBS might exert its effect through antidromic stimulation. Our study provides a comprehensive mapping of circuit and network-level neuromodulation by NAc-DBS, which should facilitate our developing understanding of its therapeutic mechanisms of action.

Eur Neuropsychopharmacol 2016; 26:856-68. [PMID: 26774279 DOI: 10.1016/j.euroneuro.2015.12.003] [Citation(s) in RCA: 119] [Impact Index Per Article: 14.9] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/10/2015] [Revised: 08/17/2015] [Accepted: 12/01/2015] [Indexed: 01/05/2023]
Abstract
Compulsive behaviors are driven by repetitive urges and typically involve the experience of limited voluntary control over these urges, a diminished ability to delay or inhibit these behaviors, and a tendency to perform repetitive acts in a habitual or stereotyped manner. Compulsivity is not only a central characteristic of obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD) but is also crucial to addiction. Based on this analogy, OCD has been proposed to be part of the concept of behavioral addiction along with other non-drug-related disorders that share compulsivity, such as pathological gambling, skin-picking, trichotillomania and compulsive eating. In this review, we investigate the neurobiological overlap between compulsivity in substance-use disorders, OCD and behavioral addictions as a validation for the construct of compulsivity that could be adopted in the Research Domain Criteria (RDoC). The reviewed data suggest that compulsivity in OCD and addictions is related to impaired reward and punishment processing with attenuated dopamine release in the ventral striatum, negative reinforcement in limbic systems, cognitive and behavioral inflexibility with diminished serotonergic prefrontal control, and habitual responding with imbalances between ventral and dorsal frontostriatal recruitment. Frontostriatal abnormalities of compulsivity are promising targets for neuromodulation and other interventions for OCD and addictions. We conclude that compulsivity encompasses many of the RDoC constructs in a trans-diagnostic fashion with a common brain circuit dysfunction that can help identifying appropriate prevention and treatment targets.

Deep Brain Stimulation of the Ventral Pallidum Attenuates Epileptiform Activity and Seizing Behavior in Pilocarpine-Treated Rats. Brain Stimul 2015; 9:285-95. [PMID: 26723019 DOI: 10.1016/j.brs.2015.11.006] [Citation(s) in RCA: 13] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.4] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/29/2015] [Revised: 10/30/2015] [Accepted: 11/16/2015] [Indexed: 02/06/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Brain stimulation is effective for people with intractable epilepsy. However, modulating neural targets that provide greater efficacy to more individuals is still needed. OBJECTIVE/HYPOTHESIS We investigate whether bilateral deep brain stimulation of the ventral pallidum (VP-DBS) has potent seizure control in pilocarpine-treated rats. METHODS VP-DBS (50 Hz) was applied prior to generalized forebrain seizures or after generalized brainstem seizures manifested. Behavioral seizures were assessed using a modified Racine scale. In vitro and in vivo electrophysiological techniques were employed to identify how VP-DBS affects proximal and distal neuronal activity. The open field test was used to see if acute and chronic VP-DBS affected gross motor function or arousal state. Parametric and non-parametric statistics with post-hoc analysis were performed. RESULTS VP-DBS prior to pilocarpine prevented behavioral forebrain and brainstem seizures in most animals (n = 15). VP-DBS after brainstem seizures emerged prevented or reduced the appearance of subsequent behavioral brainstem seizures (n = 11). VP-DBS attenuated epileptiform activity in the hippocampus (n = 5), but not in the primary somatosensory cortex (S1) (n = 4) in vivo. Electrical stimulation in the VP increased VP GABAergic neuronal firing activity from 3.1 ± 1.4 Hz to 7.6 ± 1.7 Hz (n = 8) in vitro and reduced substantia nigra reticulata and superior colliculus neuronal spiking activity from 25.4 ± 3.3 Hz to 18.2 ± 1.4 Hz (n = 6) and 18.2 ± 1.4 Hz to 11.0 ± 1.1 Hz (n = 18), respectively, in vivo. CONCLUSION VP-DBS can be a novel and potent therapeutic approach for individuals with intractable epilepsy.

Abstract
Nicotine addiction is highly prevalent in current society and is often comorbid with other diseases. In the central nervous system, nicotine acts as an agonist for nicotinic acetylcholine receptors (nAChRs) and its effects depend on location and receptor composition. Although nicotinic receptors are found in most brain regions, many studies on addiction have focused on the mesolimbic system and its reported behavioral correlates such as reward processing and reinforcement learning. Profound modulatory cholinergic input from the pedunculopontine and laterodorsal tegmentum to dopaminergic midbrain nuclei as well as local cholinergic interneuron projections to dopamine neuron axons in the striatum may play a major role in the effects of nicotine. Moreover, an indirect mesocorticolimbic feedback loop involving the medial prefrontal cortex may be involved in behavioral characteristics of nicotine addiction. Therefore, this review will highlight current understanding of the effects of nicotine on the function of mesolimbic and mesocortical dopamine projections in the mesocorticolimbic circuit.

Abstract
Striatal cholinergic interneurons (ChIs) are central for the processing and reinforcement of reward-related behaviors that are negatively affected in states of altered dopamine transmission, such as in Parkinson's disease or drug addiction. Nevertheless, the development of therapeutic interventions directed at ChIs has been hampered by our limited knowledge of the diverse anatomical and functional characteristics of these neurons in the dorsal and ventral striatum, combined with the lack of pharmacological tools to modulate specific cholinergic receptor subtypes. This review highlights some of the key morphological, synaptic, and functional differences between ChIs of different striatal regions and across species. It also provides an overview of our current knowledge of the cellular localization and function of cholinergic receptor subtypes. The future use of high-resolution anatomical and functional tools to study the synaptic microcircuitry of brain networks, along with the development of specific cholinergic receptor drugs, should help further elucidate the role of striatal ChIs and permit efficient targeting of cholinergic systems in various brain disorders, including Parkinson's disease and addiction.

Abstract
Clinical outcome of deep brain stimulation (DBS) for obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD) shows robust effects in terms of a mean Yale-Brown Obsessive-Compulsive Scale (YBOCS) reduction of 47.7 % and a mean response percentage (minimum 35 % YBOCS reduction) of 58.2 %. It appears that most patients regain a normal quality of life (QoL) after DBS. Reviewing the literature of the last 4 years, we argue that the mechanisms of action of DBS are a combination of excitatory and inhibitory as well as local and distal effects. Evidence from DBS animal models converges with human DBS EEG and imaging findings, in that DBS may be effective for OCD by reduction of hyperconnectivity between frontal and striatal areas. This is achieved through reduction of top-down-directed synchrony and reduction of frontal low-frequency oscillations. DBS appears to counteract striatal dysfunction through an increase in striatal dopamine and through improvement of reward processing. DBS affects anxiety levels through reduction of stress hormones and improvement of fear extinction.
