Effects of different stimulation parameters on the antidepressant-like response of medial prefrontal cortex deep brain stimulation in rats
Abstract
Subcallosal cingulate gyrus (SCG) deep brain stimulation (DBS) is currently being investigated as a treatment for major depression. Despite the encouraging findings of the initial clinical series, several questions remain unanswered, including the most effective stimulation parameters (i.e., current intensity and frequency) and whether unilateral stimulation is also beneficial. We have recently found that some of the effects of SCG DBS could be modeled by stimulating the ventromedial prefrontal cortex (vmPFC) of rats undergoing the forced swim test (FST). Here we investigate whether changes in a number of DBS parameters, including electrode placement, influence outcome in this paradigm. Overall, we found that the antidepressant-like effects of DBS varied as a function of stimulation settings and target. The strongest response was observed with a current intensity of 200 microA, followed by 100 microA, and 300 microA. In contrast, 400 microA produced no effect. Using 200 microA, a frequency of 130 Hz was more effective than 20 Hz. An intriguing finding was that left unilateral stimulation was as effective as bilateral DBS. When different targets within the vmPFC were considered, a significant antidepressant-like response was observed after PL DBS, whereas IL stimulation was associated with a non-significant reduction in immobility scores. In summary, vmPFC DBS at high frequency and moderate intensity led to a maximal response in the FST.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
