Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of optogenetics experimental technology, and in particular to an optogenetic method for stable control of cell light exposure based on irradiance negative feedback regulation. Background Technology

[0002] With the development of optogenetics, researchers have been able to precisely regulate cellular behavior, neural activity, or signaling pathways by introducing light-sensitive protein genes into cells, enabling the cells to produce controllable biological responses to specific wavelengths of light stimulation. This technology has been widely applied in neuroscience research, cell signal transduction analysis, and the exploration of disease mechanisms. In optogenetic experiments, cells are extremely sensitive to light conditions, especially the stability of light intensity, which directly affects the activation efficiency of light-sensitive proteins and the cellular response. Therefore, providing stable, uniform, and controllable light conditions in the cell culture environment is crucial for ensuring the accuracy and reproducibility of optogenetic experiments.

[0003] However, in existing light-based culture equipment, LED light sources are typically controlled by fixed driving parameters, lacking a real-time monitoring and dynamic adjustment mechanism for changes in light intensity. When LED light sources operate for extended periods, they are prone to thermal drift due to factors such as device heating, ambient temperature changes, and power supply fluctuations, causing the irradiance to gradually deviate from the initial set value. Simultaneously, as the LED devices are used for longer periods, their photoelectric conversion efficiency gradually decreases, resulting in light intensity decay and causing a deviation between the actual light stimulation dose received by the cells and the expected value. Furthermore, if the culture device needs to be turned on for monitoring or maintenance during experiments, the entry of ambient light can cause instantaneous changes in light intensity, disturbing the cell state. While some existing systems can detect irradiance, they often rely solely on single-point detection or simple feedback adjustment, lacking the ability to analyze light change trends and promptly identify abnormalities such as periodic fluctuations or continuous decay, making it difficult to effectively guarantee light stability during long-term experiments.

[0004] Therefore, how to achieve real-time monitoring, trend prediction, and dynamic compensation adjustment of LED light intensity in a cell culture environment, so that the light intensity remains stable during long-term experiments, and reduces the impact of thermal drift, aging attenuation, and environmental disturbances of the light source, has become an important technical problem that urgently needs to be solved in the field of optogenetic experimental equipment.

And the dividing line between obvious and severe deviations. Through comprehensive error index Determine the different levels of offset when At that time, it was determined to be a slight deviation. When, it is judged as a significant deviation, when At that time, it was determined to be a severe deviation; The dividing line between slight and obvious deviation Represented as: ; in, These are empirical weighting coefficients.

[0029] S5 includes: S51, Receiver output compensation level strategy And convert it into the corresponding current or voltage regulation strategy code, where, This indicates that the current output will remain unchanged, with no adjustment. This indicates the implementation of weak compensation. This indicates that strong compensation will be implemented; S52, based on the current comprehensive error index Compensation level strategy as determined The required voltage or current compensation increment is calculated using a piecewise linear regulation model. , is represented as: ; in, , The control gain coefficients corresponding to weak compensation and strong compensation, respectively, satisfy the following conditions: ; S53, calculates the voltage or current compensation increment. Add the current driving voltage or current base value Generate updated control signals The output is then sent to the LED light source control unit, so that the LED output light intensity is corrected to the target irradiance in real time, as shown below: .

[0030] Specific examples are as follows: Set the target irradiance to The target value is used as the initial irradiance reference. Irradiance detector 5 selects four monitoring points at the bottom of the culture dish 2 corresponding to the LED illumination area for simultaneous monitoring. The reference irradiance vector acquired at the initial moment is: ; That is, the initial irradiance of the four monitoring points are respectively , , and After 5 minutes of continuous irradiation, the irradiance detector 5 detected the current real-time irradiance vector as follows: ; The illumination offsets at each monitoring point are as follows: ; Therefore, it can be seen that the output of LED light source 4 has decreased overall at this point, exhibiting a relatively obvious uniform decay. Furthermore, the system continuously records the illumination shift information over the first 5 minutes and constructs the time series for each monitoring point. Taking a typical monitoring point as an example, its shift sequence from minute 1 to minute 5 can be as follows: ; The following illumination variation characteristics can be extracted from this sequence: 1. The local offset slope gradually increases, indicating that the rate of irradiance decay is accelerating; 2. The low fluctuation frequency indicates that the change is not a high-frequency random disturbance, but rather closer to a continuous downward trend; 3. The relatively small variance of the offset but the continuous increase in the rate of change of extreme values ​​indicates that the offset is relatively smooth at each time point, but the overall downward trend is clear.

[0031] Based on this, the system uses an exponentially weighted moving average model for prediction. Assuming a smoothing coefficient of 0.6, the predicted offset value for this monitoring point in the next 10 minutes can be estimated from recent offsets. This means that the irradiance at the monitoring point is predicted to decrease to approximately 10 minutes later. ; The prediction results for other monitoring points can be approximated as follows: ; This generates a potential offset trend map for future periods, based on which the system determines that the current LED light source exhibits a continuous attenuation trend. Subsequently, the system enters the comprehensive error calculation stage. The average absolute value of the offset at the four monitoring points at the current moment is: ; That is, the instantaneous light offset intensity is During the future forecast period, the average predicted offset for each monitoring point is approximately... Based on this calculation, the risk intensity of future trend deviation is acceptable: ; Assuming the instantaneous offset weighting coefficient is 0.4, the comprehensive error index is: ; In this embodiment, the dividing line between slight and significant deviation is set to a value. The dividing line between obvious and severe deviation is _____. ,Right now: when At that time, it was determined to be a slight Microsoft offset; when At that time, it was determined to be a significant deviation; when At that time, it was determined to be a severe deviation.

[0032] Due to the comprehensive error index in this embodiment greater than Therefore, the system determines that the current LED light source 4 is in a severely offset state and generates a strong compensation strategy.

[0033] During the compensation phase, the LED light source control unit receives the compensation level strategy. Assume that the compensation level coding remains unchanged as follows: Weak compensation is Strong compensation is Therefore, the output compensation level code in this embodiment is: ; Furthermore, let the current comprehensive error index be... The strong compensation control gain coefficient is taken as The current compensation increment is: ; If the current LED driving current base value is The updated drive current is: ; The control unit outputs the updated drive current to LED light source 4, increasing its luminous intensity. Approximately [time missing] after compensation is performed. After a second check within minutes, the real-time irradiance vector was restored to: ; Its average irradiance is approximately The irradiance has recovered to near the initial baseline level, indicating that the compensation strategy effectively suppressed the decrease in irradiance caused by LED thermal drift and light decay.

[0034] Furthermore, in another scenario with a smaller offset, if the system detects that the average irradiance has only decreased to 97 after 5 minutes... It is predicted that it will drop to about 95 in about 10 minutes. If this is achieved, a lower overall error index can be obtained, such as 5. In this case, the system determines that there is a significant offset and only triggers a weak compensation strategy. By slightly increasing the driving current or voltage, the light intensity can be restored to near the initial reference, thereby avoiding overcompensation.

[0035] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present invention. It should be noted that for those skilled in the art, several improvements and modifications can be made without departing from the principle of the present invention, and these improvements and modifications should also be considered within the scope of protection of the present invention.
