SUMMARY:Graduate Student Seminar Series - Yijinmide Buren
DESCRIPTION:Graduate Student Seminar Series\nPlease ensure you invite your Principal Investigator by adding their email via the ‘Add Guest’ button and they will also be notified of your presentation.\nLocation: WB116\nPresentation Title: Multi-modal interrogation of subcortical circuit activations elicited by GPi-DBS\nAbstract:\nEvoked resonant neural activity (ERNA) occurs during deep brain stimulation (DBS) of\nthe subthalamic nucleus (STN)\, and its amplitude is correlated to clinical benefit. In pilot work\,\nwe uncovered that the ERNA waveform is associated with temporally-locked patterned neuronal inhibition in the STN; likely representative of a functional readout of a restorative promotion of GPe (globus pallidus externus) mediated inhibition throughout the basal-ganglia-thalamo-cortical network. Our objective here was to perform physiological and anatomical characterizations of this circuit signature in the globus pallidus internus (GPi)\, as we hypothesize that ERNA (GPemediated\ninhibition) is a necessary mechanistic phenomenon underlying the common efficacy of\nSTN- and GPi-DBS for Parkinson’s disease (PD).During awake DBS surgeries\, intracranial\nrecordings were acquired using two closely spaced microelectrodes (600 μm spacing)\, using one for recording and the other for stimulation. Stimulation-induced electrophysiological signals were recorded across the spatial extent of GPi\, and the resulting data used to generate interstimulus waveform averages and corresponding peristimulus spike histograms. Distinct neural responses\, including ERNA\, were identified in the GPi. In addition to ERNA (GPe-mediated inhibition)\, we have discovered functional readouts of the activation of striatal and STN inputs to GPi. High resolution functional mapping across the GPi anatomy revealed that the ERNA hotspot was associated with the typical therapeutic target for GPi-DBS. ERNA may be clinically useful as a biomarker for targeting the most beneficial location for GPi-DBS. Additionally\, ERNA (GPemediated inhibition) may represent a convergent mechanistic circuit theory behind the common efficacy of STN- and GPi-DBS in PD.\nSupervisor Name: Luka Milosevic\nYear of Study: 2\nProgram of Study: MASc\nPowered by Calendly.com
