Technical Field

Background
The first application of the principles of optogenetic technology was derived from studies conducted by Zemelman et al in 2002 to introduce chrge into target cells for the regulation of neural activity. In 2005, Boyden and Deissoth, et al, have collectively reported a technique for controlling nerve cell activity using a light-sensitive protein. The concept of optogenetics is proposed by Deisseroth et al in 2006, and refers to a cell biology research technology method combining genetics (recombinant DNA technology) and optical technology. The method expresses light-sensitive protein on selected cells, and then applies light with corresponding wavelength to irradiate and activate the light-sensitive protein, thereby realizing fine regulation and control of physiological functions of cells, tissues, organs and animals. Optogenetic techniques have now been applied to the study of many diseases, such as cardiovascular diseases, neurological diseases, etc. The first search in the field of epilepsy treatment is that Halorodopsin (NpHR) is introduced into main cells of hippocampus by Tnnesen and the like in 2009, and it is observed that the optogenetic technology can successfully inhibit epileptic seizure on a cultured rat brain slice epilepsy model. Therefore, the optogenetic technology is proposed to be possibly a new method for treating epilepsy in the future.
Epilepsy is a chronic brain disease caused by abnormal discharge of a group of neurons in a hypersynchronous manner, and is caused by an imbalance between excitatory and inhibitory properties of the central nervous system. At present, the main treatment method of epilepsy is drug treatment, but still some patients have unsatisfactory drug treatment effect, and epilepsy which is difficult to treat is developed. Traditional antiepileptic drugs show a deficient specificity in the epileptic neural circuit for a specific cell type. The hyperexcitability of many neurons during a seizure is dynamic and requires precise temporal control of neural activity for effective treatment. The optogenetic technology has temporal and spatial specificity, can be accurately positioned in a group or single neuron cells, and can provide a new choice for treating the epilepsy.
