Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of animal chronic stress experiments, in particular to an experimental system for chronic stress experiments on small animals. Background Art

[0002] Stress is a common physiological and psychological reaction in modern humans. While appropriate stress responses can help boost immunity and promote physical and mental health, excessive stress responses can suppress immune function and lead to physical or psychological illness. Elucidating the impact of stress on immune function and its mechanisms can help identify effective interventions and is crucial for disease prevention and treatment.

[0003] Chronic stress response is a form of stress that can occur in a variety of situations. During epidemics of highly contagious pathogens, the ongoing, long-term lockdowns impacted residents' physical and mental health, leading many to experience chronic stress. In large cities like Beijing, Shanghai, Guangzhou, and Shenzhen, many people live in cramped quarters for extended periods, creating a stressful environment that can easily cause chronic stress. Furthermore, for those working in extreme environments like submarines and space stations, the long-term effects of chronic stress on their health cannot be ignored. Studies have shown that the adverse health effects of submarine crew members are primarily positively correlated with work-related stress, which stems primarily from the unique nature of their work environment. The most significant factor is the adverse health effects of physical stimulation on submarine crew members. Physiological and psychological stress are often intertwined. Research has shown that psychological stress can lead to decreased immune function in both humans and animals, particularly in cellular immunity.

[0004] Model mice are an important component in the study of chronic stress. Common stress models include the Chronic Unpredictable Mild Stress (CUMS) model, the Learned Helplessness (LH) model, the Chronic Restraint Stress (CRS) model, and the Social Defeat (SD) model. The CUMS model is one of the most effective and widely used animal models of depression. It simulates the many unpredictable mild stimuli that people encounter in their daily lives, mainly physical stress. This model focuses on anhedonia, the most core symptom of depression. The stimuli used generally include: day and night reversal, food and water deprivation, cold, crowding, tilting, strobing, noise, and the smell of natural enemies. Generally, 1-2 random stimuli are applied every day to make the animals unpredictable, and the experimental modeling time is 3-4 weeks. A large number of studies have reported that the CUMS model has good face validity (can well induce anhedonia symptoms) and predictive validity (behavioral changes can be reversed by multiple antidepressants), and its induced behavior and neurochemical changes have good stability. However, the stimulation applied by this model mostly requires the experimenter to be highly involved. The experimenter personally applies different stimulations every day for 3-4 weeks. This artificial implementation consumes a large amount of manpower, and is intelligent and automated, and inefficient. And there is no existing chronic stress experimental equipment that can complete all stimulation experiments, causing the realization of this chronic stress experiment to be very troublesome. If experimental animals are changed into different devices to realize corresponding stress stimulation, this will cause final experimental result to be inaccurate. Based on this, the present invention designs a kind of experimental system for experimental small animal chronic stress. Summary of the Invention
