Abstract
Implantable magnetic stimulation is an emerging type of neuromodulation using coils that are small enough to be implanted in the brain. A major advantage of this method is that stimulation performance could be sustained even though the coil is encapsulated by gliosis due to foreign body reactions. Magnetic fields can induce indirect electric fields and currents in neurons. Compared to transcranial magnetic stimulation, the coil size used in implantable magnetic stimulation can be greatly reduced. However, the size reduction is accompanied by an increase in coil resistance. Hence, the coil could potentially damage neurons from the excess heat generated. Therefore, it is necessary to study the stimulation performance and possible thermal damage by implantable magnetic stimulation. Here, we devised contact-mode magnetic stimulation (CMS), wherein magnetic stimulation was applied to hippocampal slices through a customized planar-type coil underneath the slice in the contact mode. With acute hippocampal slices, we investigated the synaptic responses to examine the field excitatory postsynaptic responses of CMS and the temperature rise during CMS. A long-lasting synaptic depression was exhibited in the CA1 stratum radiatum after CMS, while the temperature remained in a safe range so as not to seriously affect the neural responses. © 2018, The Author(s).
