Inducing Acute Pons Infarction in a Rat Model Using Electrical Stimulation

-- views • 1:16 min

記録

Secure an anesthetized rat in a stereotaxic unit.

Remove the fur from the scalp and sanitize the incision site. Make a midline incision and retract the skin to expose the skull.

Remove the connective tissue to avoid interference with the drill. Identify the bregma as a reference point to determine the coordinates of the pons, a structure located in the brainstem.

Drill a hole in the skull.

Insert a probe through the hole to reach the pons.

Next, connect the electrodes to an electrical stimulator, attaching the anode to the probe for brain stimulation and the cathode to the rat's ear to complete the circuit.

Deliver an electrical pulse to the pons, inducing localized tissue damage or infarction.

After stimulation, leave the probe in place briefly to stabilize the stimulation effect.

Then, slowly remove the probe and seal the surgical site with bone cement.

Suture the incision and return the rat to its cage for recovery and neurological analysis.
