Parkinson’s disease (PD) and Deep brain stimulation (DBS)
PD: 800 000 persons in Europe (65 000 new cases each year), 6 millions in the world
DBS: Standard and efficient symptomatic procedure to improve motor symptoms
Main targets: Vim, GPi, STN (favorite)
Mechanisms of DBS: many hypotheses proposed, but mechanisms still unclear today

PD, DBS and paradoxes
Reversibility of symptoms (sleep, somnanbulism or emergencies, pharmacology, DBS) PD = dynamical disease (Beuter et al, 1995), defined by Mackey and Glass (1977)
Lesion versus stimulation: excitation and/or inhibition of the stimulated area?
Frequency dependent stimulation effect

21/04/23
Paradox 1: Reversibility of symptoms
PD: reversible under DBS or L-DOPA, symptoms re-appear is DBS or L-DOPA is stopped.
DBS acts on a control parameter of the motor loop network to re-etablish physiological dynamics.

Role of the STN-GPe complex in basal ganglia
STN and GPe: tightly interconnected nuclei
STN: main excitatory structure in basal ganglia
STN weak activity in healthy state, strong and synchronous activity between 3 and 8 Hz in PD
STN-GPe: can oscillate spontaneously, « bad pacemaker » ?

Philosophy of the modelling approach
A multi-scale description: DBS current impacts the cellular, population and « network of populations » levels (Beuter and Modolo, 2007)
A dynamical description with a fine temporal resolution: functional models are useful, but not sufficient (static)
A model not too cumbersome easily re-used by other researchers in the field

Modelling the effects of DBS with a population based model
Why? : Complex systems imply numerous interactions between the elements of the system: analytical solving is difficult or impossible.
Key concept : Average interaction for each element.
Previous models: mainly based on the LIF model (Nykamp and Tranchina, 2000; Omurtag et al., 2000).
Advantages: multi-scale, dynamic model.
Seems appropriate to model the effects of DBS in PD.

3) Quantify neuronal interactions (using a mean-field variable)

Then: if M spikes at time t, each neuron receives (W/N)*M spikes

3. Can we explain DBS paradoxes?
38

21/04/23
Paradox 1: Why do STN stimulation and lesion produce similar benefits?
DBS: intuitively increases the firing rate of STN neurons.
Lesion: destruction of the STN (subthalamotomy), thus completely suppresses STN activity, dramatically improves tremor (BUT is not reversible!)
How can we explain this paradox? We propose the following mechanism:
Stimulation-Induced Functional Decoupling (SIFD): DBS current neutralizes the impact of glutamatergic synapses within the STN (cortical afferences or axon collaterals within the STN).
39
![Page 40: 26/12/2015 Linking brain dynamics, neural mechanisms and deep brain stimulation Anne Beuter and Julien Modolo Laboratoire d’Intégration du Matériau au](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022070413/5697bff41a28abf838cbd42f/html5/thumbnails/40.jpg)
21/04/23
We propose the following mechanism:
Stimulation Induced Functional Decoupling (SIFD) is the situation where neuronal interactions become negligible with regards to individual neuronal dynamics. Thus, the network becomes «unwired» and neurons seem independent from one another.
Mathematically speaking:
Individual neuronal dynamics (+DBS)
Neuronal interactions

Intuitively, electrical stimulation of neurons should increase spiking activity (assumed in Rubin and Terman, 2004)
However: in vivo recordings in MPTP monkeys show a decrease in STN neurons activity! (Meissner et al., 2005)
Furthermore: GPi cells (target of STN cells) are activated at high-frequency (Hashimoto et al., 2003) how is this compatible?

Decrease of somatic activity during DBS (model, top; experimental data in humans, bottom)(McIntyre et al., 2004)

21/04/23
Let us list STN neurons dynamical properties:
Dampened oscillations of their membrane potential (Bergman et al., 1994)
Post-inhibitory bursts of action potentials (Bevan et al., 2002)
Two stable equilibria (bistability) (Kass and Mintz, 2006)
STN neurons have their equilibrium near an Andronov-Hopf bifurcation (Izhikevich, 2007) and can be classified as resonators.
Eigen-frequency of STN neurons: low-frequency, thus: high-frequency (≥100 Hz) can delay or decrease the response.
STN neurons dynamical properties underlie their activity decrease during DBS (Modolo and Beuter, in preparation).

21/04/23
Paradox 2: Why are DBS effects frequency-dependent?
Low-frequency (<20 Hz) DBS: has no effect on motor function, sometimes worsens symptoms (Timmermann et al., 2007).
High-frequency DBS (>100 Hz): provides dramatic relief of symptoms.
Modolo et al. (2008): low-frequency DBS current may cause a resonance with STN neurons eigen-frequency.
Low-frequency DBS appears to exacerbate pathological activity, while high-frequency DBS suppresses it.

How does DBS facilitate motor function?
DBS appears to mimic lesions by decreasing STN activity, and lesions improve motor function.
Synaptic decoupling between motor cortex and STN during DBS via SIFD.
Lalo et al. 2008 decrease bêta coupling between M1 and STN during the execution of movement (experimental study).
Our interpretation: the STN becomes functionnaly decoupled from M1 following SIFD, facilitating the execution of movement.

Confirmation of insights from simulations
DBS mimics the decoupling of the STN from internal excitatory connections and maybe from cortex, that normally occurs in the presence of dopamine (Magill et al., 2001)
The effects of DBS are frequency-dependent, i.e., the stimulation frequency is close or away from the resonance frequency of the stimulated area (Timmermann et al., 2007)

The diffusion approximation
Let us remind the main population equation
In the limit (EPSP low amplitude), the interaction term expresses as
which gives a Fokker-Planck equation
