Frequency-dependent electrical stimulation of fimbria-fornix preferentially affects the mesolimbic dopamine system or prefrontal cortex

Abstract: Background: The fimbria/fornix fiber system is an essential part of the hippocampal-VTA loop, and therefore activities that are propagated through this fiber system control the activity of the mesolimbic dopamine system. Objectives/hypothesis: We hypothesized that stimulation of the fimbria/fornix with an increasing number of electrical pulses would cause increasing activity of the mesolimbic dopamine system, which coincides with concurrent changes in neuronal activities in target regions of the mesolimbic dop… Show more

“…Taken together, our results demonstrate a non-invasive focal modulation of evoked neural activity in the targeted hippocampus. The hippocampal decrease in BOLD signal observed during the TI 1:3 condition is in alignment with previous animal studies, showing theta frequency stimulation decreases the magnitude of the BOLD signal in the hippocampus 31-33 . This would suggest that larger field magnitudes should result in larger decreases in BOLD signal.…”

“…Another potential source of input may arise from the hippocampus, which has likewise been implicated in fear-related changes in behavior in ELS-experienced animals (Reincke and Hanganu-Opatz, 2017). Consistent with this interpretation, high-gamma electrical stimulations in the fibria-fornix preferentially enhanced coordination between PFC and hippocampus, suggesting a likely route of communication on this frequency (Helbing and Angenstein, 2020). Future investigations will need to investigate these pathways, and in particular, why this frequency is uniquely disrupted while others are relatively unaffected.…”

“…Using established methods ( Bovet-Carmona et al. 2019 ; Helbing and Angenstein 2020 ), the following VOIs were marked individually in a 3D standard rat brain that was generated from a rat of the same age and strain: right/left hippocampus (HC), right/left entorhinal cortex (EC), right/left nucleus accumbens, right/left striatum, right/left basolateral amygdala (BLA), right/left piriform cortex, right/left AON, dorsal medial prefrontal cortex (mPFC), PrL-IL, nucleus of the vertical limb of the diagonal band (VDB), septum, and ventral tegmental area–substantia nigra (VTA-SN). With regard to the VOIs located more medially in the brain, the spatial resolution of fMRI recordings did not permit an unambiguous distinction of left and right hemispheres.…”
