Method and system for pain state discrimination based on specific neural circuit activity patterns

PendingCN122320456AAchieve precise targetingRealize functionPain.statusAcute stage
A method and system for differentiating acute and chronic pain based on the functional state of specific neural circuits is proposed. This method utilizes in vivo two-photon / endoscopic calcium imaging and ex vivo brain slice patch-clamp techniques to longitudinally monitor the activity dynamics of neurons in the DRN and ZI brain regions during the acute and chronic phases of a neuropathic pain model. By extracting and analyzing calcium and electrophysiological signal parameter sets, distinguishing criteria are established: if the activity of 5-HTergic neurons in the DRN is specifically enhanced in the acute phase, the indication is acute pain; if the activity of GABAergic neurons in the ZI is specifically enhanced in the chronic phase, the indication is chronic pain. This invention achieves an objective and precise differentiation of the transition from acute to chronic pain at the level of specific neural circuits, providing a new strategy and tool for pain mechanism research and clinical diagnosis and treatment.

A method for preparing a brain organoid model of Kabuki syndrome and its application

This invention belongs to the field of biomedicine and relates to a method for preparing a Kabuki syndrome brain organoid model and its application. This invention provides the application of GSK-3 inhibitors in the preparation of drugs for treating Kabuki syndrome. Currently existing Kabuki models include heterozygous mice, zebrafish, and 2D human cell models. However, the complexity of human brain development cannot be compared to animal models or single 2D cell models. In this invention, the inventors used CRISPR-CAS9 gene editing technology to knock out KMT2D and established a Kabuki syndrome brain organoid model using brain organoid technology. Studies have found that, compared to the wild type, the Kabuki syndrome brain organoid exhibits premature differentiation of excessive GABAergic neurons. Furthermore, by testing the dosage and time window of the small molecule chir99021, we found that this small molecule can restore the phenotype of abnormal neuronal differentiation in the Kabuki syndrome brain organoid. This discovery will provide new insights for the treatment of Kabuki syndrome.

Application of GRP94 protein as a drug delivery target in the construction of drug carriers for Parkinson's disease

This invention discloses the application of GRP94 protein as a drug delivery target in the construction of drug carriers for Parkinson's disease. GRP94 is highly upregulated on the cell membranes of dopaminergic neurons in the substantia nigra of Parkinson's disease cells, while its expression is extremely low on the surface of normal brain cells. The invention also discloses the application of GRP94 as a target in a targeted delivery system for anti-Parkinson's disease drugs. By targeting GRP94, the delivered anti-Parkinson's drug can efficiently penetrate the blood-brain barrier to reach the brain parenchyma, avoiding normal brain cells and specifically targeting dopaminergic neurons in the substantia nigra of Parkinson's disease cells, thus achieving targeted drug delivery for Parkinson's disease. This invention applies GRP94 as a target in the construction of drug carriers for Parkinson's disease and in the preparation of targeted delivery systems for anti-Parkinson's disease drugs. Compared to other target receptors that cross the blood-brain barrier for targeted brain delivery, targeting GRP94 more specifically targets dopaminergic neurons in the substantia nigra, avoiding drug accumulation and neurotoxicity in normal intracranial regions.
