Neuromodulation and Neuroclinical

Anesthesia and Brain Function

Organizer:Yingwei Wang、Ji Hu

Introduction: General anesthesia serves a critically important function in the clinical care of human patients. However, the mechanism of general anesthesia is still unknown. The neural circuits underlying the distinct endpoints that define general anesthesia remain incompletely understood. It is becoming increasingly evident, however, that distinct pathways in the brain that mediate arousal and pain are involved in various endpoints of general anesthesia. For this symposia, we focus on the fields of the mechanism of general anesthetics, the effects of general anesthetics on brain function in both the developing and elderly population, the mechanism of a mutual relationship between anesthesia and sleep, assessing the depth of anesthesia and consciousness, perioperative analgesia etc.

Our lab focus on investigating the mechanisms of anesthetic-induced developmental neurotoxicity and POCD, and we discover that sevoflurane exacerbates neuronal excitatory degeneration via enhancing GABAA receptor on postsynaptic membrane. In addition, we demonstrate that endogenous neuroactive steroids and LHPA axis are involved in neuronal damage caused by narcotic drugs. These evidences provide new clues for the study of anesthetic-induced developmental neuronal decline followed by long-term cognitive dysfunction. We also found that general anesthesia caused long-term cognitive dysfunction in patients after surgery.

Anesthetics not only induce a state of reversible, controlled consciousness but also demonstrate potent neuroprotective effects. We can thoroughly explore the impact of anesthetics on crucial aspects of brain function, encompassing sleep/wake cycles, consciousness, emotional memory, and more. Recent findings in our research highlight that propofol, as opposed to sevoflurane, improves sleep quality in rats after prolonged sleep deprivation by enhancing functional connectivity in the mPFC and influencing the dynamics of brain glutamate and glucose metabolism. Furthermore, our pioneering work suggests that the involvement of the cerebello-thalamus-motor cortical loop may contribute to the unconsciousness induced by anesthetics.

Brain Stimulation for Psychiatry: Modeling, Precision, and Efficacy

Organizer:Tifei Yuan、Yihong Yang

Introduction: Mental disorder is a major public health issue, causing considerable global burden epidemiologically and economically. World Health Organization (WHO) reports that mental disorders account for more than 25.3% of all years lived with a disability. Neuromodulation is considered a promising strategy for mental disorders. The rationale for neuromodulation is derived from the neurobiologically localized substrates for psychiatric symptoms. Focusing on the topic of “Brain stimulation for psychiatry: modeling, precision, and efficacy”, this symposium will present cutting-edge progress from six experts in the field from China and USA. Their presentation will focus on three perspectives: 1) computational models for brain stimulation in psychiatry, providing insights into the design, operation, and clinical application; 2) precision-oriented brain stimulation, based on multimodal biomarkers, machine learning algorithm, and close-loop approaches; 3) effectiveness of new strategies in brain stimulation on psychiatry. We believe that the audience will greatly benefit from their presentations.

Perioperative Neuroscience: Advances in Clinical and Basic Research

Organizer:Junli Cao、Ruotian Jiang

Introduction: Anesthesia and surgery is one of the biggest medical burdens globally. Approximately 300 million surgical procedures were performed in 2022 and this number continues to rise. Perioperative neuroscience is a multidisciplinary field in neuroscience that aims to understand the neural basis for neurological complications before, during, and after any surgical procedure involving anesthesia. This symposium presents advances in the latest basic and clinical researches on major perioperative neurological complications, such as pain/itch, delayed neurocognitive recovery, awareness under anesthesia, and delirium, which are all associated with considerable morbidity. The research included covers from molecular, synaptic, neural circuit mechanisms to clinical trials/observations related to perioperative medicine and neurobiology.

Translational Neuromodulation Research from Technology to Exploratory Clinical Application

Organizer:Shouyan Wang、Huiling Tan

Introduction: Neuromodulation has become increasingly essential for treating neurological and psychiatric diseases and exploring the mechanisms of neurophysiological and cognitive functions of the brain. Deep brain stimulation has been widely used for the treatment of Parkinson’s disease and transcranial magnetic stimulation is routinely prescribed for major depression in several thousand hospitals in China. There remain huge challenges in effectively treating large population in addiction, minimal consciousness state, epilepsy and Alzheimer disease, etc. The translational research from advanced technologies of artificial intelligence, brain network modelling and big data analysis to exploratory clinical research is urgent and highly demanding in advancing the novel strategies for precision neuromodulation. The proposed symposium will begin with talks of overview on recent world-wide progresses in both deep brain stimulation and non-invasive neuromodulation. The research of brain modelling for neuromodulation and closed-loop stimulation provides solutions to intervene the brain network and neuro-dynamics. There is vigorous exploratory clinical research in China. There will be talks on deep brain stimulation for minimal consciousness state, transcranial magnetic stimulation for drug addition, closed-loop deep brain stimulation for Parkinson’s disease. The future development will be discussed in a roundtable and promoted with interdisciplinary collaboration.

Disorders of consciousness (DOC) refer to impairments in consciousness and arousal resulting from severe brain injury. The central thalamus circuitry, particularly the CM-pf nucleus, is believed to be responsible for DOC. Deep brain stimulation (DBS) is a potential therapeutic approach for awakening consciousness, but its regulatory mechanisms are not well understood. In this study, we implanted DBS electrodes into the Centromedian-parafascicular complex (CM-pf) nucleus of DOC patients and compared the effects on clinical behavior at different stimulation frequencies (50Hz and 100Hz). We also analyzed the clinical efficacy of DBS and examined changes in electrophysiological activity of central thalamic local field potentials (LFP). By gaining a deeper understanding of the therapeutic effects of DBS in this patient population and uncovering the physiological mechanisms behind DBS-induced arousal, we aim to provide guidance for optimizing future treatments using DBS.
