摘 要
光遗传学作为一种新兴的神经科学研究技术,通过将遗传工程与光学手段相结合,实现了对神经细胞活动的精确调控。本研究旨在利用光遗传学方法探索神经细胞活动的动态特性及其在生理和病理条件下的功能机制。基于此,我们构建了特定的光敏蛋白表达系统,并结合高精度光学刺激设备,成功实现了对目标神经元群体的时空特异性控制。研究中,我们选取小鼠脑内关键神经环路为模型,通过设计不同波长和频率的光刺激方案,系统性分析了神经细胞的兴奋性和抑制性活动特征。实验结果表明,光遗传学技术能够以毫秒级的时间分辨率和细胞级别的空间分辨率调控神经细胞的放电模式,同时揭示了特定神经环路在学习记忆、情感调节等复杂行为中的作用机制。

Abstract
Optogenetics, as a new neuroscience research technology, enables the precise regulation of neural cell activity by combining genetic engineering with optical means. This study aimed to explore the dynamic properties of neural cell activity and its functional mechanisms in physiological and pathological conditions under optogenetic approaches. Based on this, we constructed a specific photosensitive protein ex pression system, combined with high-precision optical stimulation equipment, to successfully achieve the spatio-temporal specific control of the target neuronal population. In the study, we selected the key neural circuits in the mouse brain as a model, and systematically analyzed the excitatory and inhibitory activity characteristics of nerve cells by designing light stimulation programs with different wavelengths and frequencies. Experimental results show that optogenetic technology can regulate the firing pattern of neural cells with millisecond temporal resolution and cell-level spatial resolution, while revealing the mechanism of specific neural circuits in complex behaviors such as learning, memory, and emotion regulation.
