Description

Black hamster sleep-wake detection system and method based on infrared open field and Python analysis and application
Technical Field
The invention relates to a small rodent behavior detection method, in particular to a sleep-wake behavior, and specifically relates to a black hamster sleep-wake behavior detection system and method based on infrared open field and Python analysis, and application of the system and method.
Background
Sleep is the most common biological rhythm produced by a variety of brain structures and neurotransmitters. Accurate detection of sleep-arousal is critical to understanding intermediate information on animal health, intermediate information on cognitive and impairment recovery, and to preparing models for related aspects. The detection method of the human sleep cycle is mainly a non-invasive instrument, including electroencephalogram (EEG), electromyogram (EMG), electrooculogram (EOG) and the like. However, studies of rodent sleep-wake can rely on less signals, primarily traumatic EEG and EMG to the animal. The monitoring steps of these two methods are as follows: (a) surgery: implanting electrodes into the head or limb muscles of the animal; (b) animal recovery; (c) Animals were attached to a recording device and acclimated for a period of time. However, the surgical operation of electrode implantation is detrimental to animal health, such as weight loss, and the like, to the welfare of the animal, and these necessary recovery and adaptation periods are time consuming and labor intensive, and are not conducive to large-scale screening of animal sleep patterns. In addition, monitoring EEG and EMG requires specialized surgical knowledge, knowledge of the location of electrode placement, and specialized equipment needed to collect sleep score data. Therefore, there is a need to develop a non-invasive system or method to detect sleep patterns in rodents.
At present, the established methods for monitoring the sleep-wake rhythm of animals have the defects. For example, flores et al attach a pressure sensor to the bottom of the cage and identify periods of sleep and arousal based on signals received by the pressure sensor. The method has the principle that when an animal is in a sleep stage, the pressure sensor can accurately output the respiratory frequency, and the signal peak value is stable and small; the animal is in the wake phase, breathing is masked by other motion, and the signal output by the pressure sensor is a large peak. And deducing the activity state of the animal according to different signal peaks. Although this method allows large-scale monitoring of animal behavior, the need for special equipment and custom software may limit the application of this method. Furthermore, non-invasive video tracking systems have been widely used, i.e. after marking animals with fluorescent dyes or bleaches, recording behavioral videos using a camera, and analyzing the sleep-wake behavior of the animals using specific software. However, manually marking animals is time consuming (re-marking after a time interval) and requires marking when the animal is unconscious, which may affect animal behavior. Therefore, the video tracking method has more disadvantages.
Disclosure of Invention
Aiming at the current invasive electroencephalogram method, the pressure sensor method with more defects and the video tracking method, the invention provides a noninvasive system, a noninvasive method and application based on the combination of an infrared open field and computer assistance.
1. A black-line hamster sleep-wake detection system based on infrared open field and Python analysis, comprising:
(1) a data collection unit: placing the hamsters in an infrared open field connected with a computer, monitoring hamster position coordinates by an infrared open field testing system every 0.2 seconds, collecting position coordinates (x, y) of the hamsters under 24h and introducing the position coordinates into an Excel table;
(2) a data processing unit: the purpose of this unit is to convert the coordinate data in the data collection unit into velocity data to count the sleep-wake rhythm of the cricetulus barnacle. The 24h position coordinate data is first divided equally into 48 and a half hour position coordinate data (9000 points per table). Then using a program 'sleep-wake' written in Python language according to the formula (
Figure DEST_PATH_IMAGE002
) And converting the coordinate data into speed data, counting the time of the black-line hamster with the speed of 0 for more than 40 seconds every half hour, and summing the time, thereby calculating the sleeping time of the hamster in every half hour. Finally, the black line hamster sleep-wake rhythm within 24h is mapped using mapping software (e.g., GRAPH PRISM 7.0.0).
2. The program "sleep-wake" for coordinate data processing and statistics of animal sleep duration.
The data processing unit processes the derived coordinate data through a user operation program 'sleep-wake', namely, the coordinate data of the black hamster in the 24h is converted into speed data. The time that the black-line hamster continuously takes more than 40 seconds as the speed is 0 is counted and summed up every half hour, and the sleeping time of the hamster in every half hour can be calculated.
The execution steps are as follows:
(1) Positional coordinate data of a cricetulus bardawil was derived and divided into 48 pieces on average, and each table possessed 9000 positional coordinate points.
(2) Converting the position coordinate data into speed data and recording the speed data by using a program' sleep-wake
Velocity 1[v 1 ,v 2 ,v 3 ……,v 9000 ],
Speed 2[v 1 ,v 2 ,v 3 ……,v 9000 ],
Speed 3[v 1 ,v 2 ,v 3 ……,v 9000 ],
…………………………………,
Speed 48[ v ] 1 ,v 2 ,v 3 ……,v 9000 ],
(3) Acquiring a speed value at every 0.2 second, and summing the continuous more than 200 time periods corresponding to 0 in adjacent data in each speed, namely the statistical time of the speed of 0 continuously for more than 40 seconds to obtain the sleep time of the black-line hamster within half an hour, wherein other time is the awakening time.

Detailed Description
In order to understand the details and nature of the present invention, the following detailed description of specific embodiments is provided.
Example 1
6 (No. 1-6) female hamsters from the field of Jiuxian mountain, qufukan, shandong, jinning, shandong, jining, were harvested from the field using the iron cage live trap method. Hamsters were then raised in single cages in standard polypropylene rearing boxes (32 cm × 21 cm × 16 cm) with free access to food and water at photoperiod 12l (illumination time 08. We chose hamsters of similar age (5-7 months of age), weight (20-25 g) and character to examine their sleep-wake rhythm. With the system, sleep-wake laws are detected by (1) a data collection unit and (2) a data processing unit.
We placed hamster # 1 in an infrared open field C to accommodate 1 h. The infrared open field detection program A (ACTITRACK program) in the computer B is turned on, and the computer screen is turned off after the detection time length is adjusted (24 h) (so that the action of hamsters is prevented from being influenced by the light in the dark environment). After the test was completed, the hamsters were returned to their cages. The same procedure was then used to sequentially test 5 other hamsters for sleep-wake rhythm within 24 h. Finally, the position coordinate (x, y) data of 6 hamsters in computer B in 24h is exported to a usb disk, and format modification and renaming (e.g., coordinate No. 1-coordinate No. 6. Csv) are performed for further analysis.
We take as an example the position coordinate data of hamster No. 1 in the infrared open field and transform it into a visualization result chart (fig. 3A) using Python program. The data "coordinates 1. Txt" were first equally divided into 48 (9000 position coordinate points of each table, respectively denoted as "coordinates 0-0.5h 1", coordinates 0.5-1h 1, coordinates 1-1.5h 1, … …, and coordinates 23.5-24h 1 "). Using fig. 2A with PyCharm open (program "sleep-wake"), the time periods of continuous over 40 s (greater than 200 data) at speed 0 in each table can be calculated and summed to count the length of time that hamsters sleep for half an hour.
The execution steps are as follows:
(1) Positional coordinate data of a cricetulus bardawil was derived and divided into 48 pieces on average, and each table possessed 9000 positional coordinate points.
(2) Converting the position coordinate data into speed data and recording the speed data by using a program' sleep-wake
Velocity 1[v 1 ,v 2 ,v 3 ……,v 9000 ],
Velocity 2[v 1 ,v 2 ,v 3 ……,v 9000 ],
Speed 3[v 1 ,v 2 ,v 3 ……,v 9000 ],
…………………………………,
Speed 48[ v ] 1 ,v 2 ,v 3 ……,v 9000 ],
(3) Acquiring a speed value at every 0.2 second, and summing the continuous more than 200 time periods corresponding to 0 in adjacent data in each speed, namely the statistical time of the speed of 0 continuously for more than 40 seconds to obtain the sleep time of the black-line hamster within half an hour, wherein other time is the awakening time.
Finally, the sleep-wake results were visualized using GRAPH PRISM 7.0.0 software, as shown in fig. 3A. The results of the sleep time period data of 6 hamsters shown using means ± SEM are shown in fig. 3B.
Our results are similar to those of Fisher et al (2012) using electroencephalography to detect sleep-wake in mice, demonstrating the accuracy of our method.
The system and the method detect the sleep-wake result of the mouse, and provide theoretical basis for preparing the medicament in the aspect of sleep-wake, preparing animal models and the like.
