{"title":"Adaptive closed-loop modulation of cortical theta oscillations: Insights into the neural dynamics of navigational decision-making","authors":"Farhad Farkhondeh Tale Navi ,&nbsp;Soomaayeh Heysieattalab ,&nbsp;Mohammad Reza Raoufy ,&nbsp;Saied Sabaghypour ,&nbsp;Milad Nazari ,&nbsp;Mohammad Ali Nazari","doi":"10.1016/j.brs.2024.09.005","DOIUrl":"10.1016/j.brs.2024.09.005","url":null,"abstract":"<div><p>Navigational decision-making tasks, such as spatial working memory (SWM), rely highly on information integration from several cortical and sub-cortical regions. Performance in SWM tasks is associated with theta rhythm, including low-frequency oscillations related to movement and memory. The interaction of the ventral hippocampus (vHPC) and medial prefrontal cortex (mPFC), reflected in theta synchrony, is essential in various steps of information processing during SWM. We used a closed-loop neurofeedback (CLNF) system to upregulate theta power in the mPFC and investigate its effects on circuit dynamics and behavior in animal models. Specifically, we hypothesized that enhancing the power of the theta rhythm in the mPFC might improve SWM performance. Animals were divided into three groups: closed-loop (CL), random-loop (RL), and OFF (without stimulation). We recorded local field potential (LFP) in the mPFC while electrical reward stimulation contingent on cortical theta activity was delivered to the lateral hypothalamus (LH), which is considered one of the central reward-associated regions. We also recorded LFP in the vHPC to evaluate the related subcortical neural changes. Results revealed a sustained increase in the theta power in both mPFC and vHPC for the CL group. Our analysis also revealed an increase in mPFC-vHPC synchronization in the theta range over the stimulation sessions in the CL group, as measured by coherence and cross-correlation in the theta frequency band. The reinforcement of this circuit improved spatial decision-making performance in the subsequent behavioral results. Our findings provide direct evidence of the relationship between specific theta upregulation and SWM performance and suggest that theta oscillations are integral to cognitive processes. Overall, this study highlights the potential of adaptive CLNF systems in investigating neural dynamics in various brain circuits.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":9206,"journal":{"name":"Brain Stimulation","volume":"17 5","pages":"Pages 1101-1118"},"PeriodicalIF":7.6,"publicationDate":"2024-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S1935861X24001608/pdfft?md5=e6e386dcb782540ba3a796c365e4d0ff&pid=1-s2.0-S1935861X24001608-main.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142240802","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, the causal relationship of these associations remains not competely clarified, primarily due to constraints by technical limitations of brain stimulation approaches suited to induce and stabilize respective oscillatory activity in the human brain. The objective of this study was to establish a non-invasive brain stimulation protocol capable of reliably inducing, and stabilizing respective oscillatory activity in the delta frequency range.</p></div><div><h3>Hypothesis</h3><p>We aimed to develop an efficient non-invasive brain stimulation (NIBS) protocol for delta frequency induction and stabilization via concurrent, phase-locked repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) and transcranial alternating current stimulation (tACS). We hypothesized that rTMS induces oscillatory resting-state activity in the delta frequency and that tACS stabilizes this effect, as has been shown before for alpha and theta frequencies.</p></div><div><h3>Methods</h3><p>19 healthy participants took part in a repeated-measures experimental protocol. We applied rTMS pulses synchronized with the peak or trough phase of 0.75Hz tACS over the bilateral prefrontal cortex.

The results of the current study might perspectively be relevant for clinical treatment of sleep disturbances which are accompanied by pathologically altered brain oscillations, and enhancement of memory consolidation.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":9206,"journal":{"name":"Brain Stimulation","volume":"17 5","pages":"Pages 1086-1097"},"PeriodicalIF":7.6,"publicationDate":"2024-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S1935861X24001578/pdfft?md5=d45c2d39befc51eb1228e15eb4daccfd&pid=1-s2.0-S1935861X24001578-main.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142233661","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
