这项研究涉及多点脑电图记录系统与为小动物（包括小鼠）设计的磁刺激系统相结合。构建的系统成本低，易于在生理实验室中构建，并且可以扩展其现有的测量设置。如果这些实验室以前有标准电生理实验的经验，那么从小鼠记录系统获取数据所需的外科手术非常简单。
使用这种方法的一个优点是电极放置在单个动物的头部和头皮上的良好可重复性。用于将螺旋电极分配?...

经颅磁刺激（TMS）因其非/低侵入性而成为人脑科学，临床应用和动物模型研究的有前途的工具。在TMS应用的早期阶段，人类和动物对单脉冲和配对脉冲TMS的皮质效应的测量仅限于运动皮层;易于测量的输出仅限于涉及运动皮层的运动诱发电位和感应肌电位1,2。为了扩展可以通过TMS调制测量的大脑区域，将脑电图（EEG）记录与单脉冲和配对脉冲TMS集成在一起，作为直接检查整个大脑区域的兴奋性，连通性和时空动力学的有用方法3,4,5。因此，同时将TMS和脑电图记录（TMS-EEG）应用于大脑已被用于探测人类和动物的各种浅表皮质大脑区域，以研究皮层内神经回路（见Tremblay等人6）。此外，TMS-EEG系统可用于检查其他皮质时空特征，包括信号传播到其他皮质区域和振荡活动的产生7,8。
然而，由于TMS的非侵入性，TMS在大脑中的作用机制仍然是推测性的，这限制了我们对TMS应用期间大脑功能的知识。因此，从啮齿动物到人类的动物的侵入性转化研究对于了解TMS对神经回路及其活性的影响机制至关重要。特别是，对于动物的TMS-EEG组合实验，尚未为小动物密集开发同步刺激和测量系统。因此，实验者需要根据其特定的实验要求，通过试错来构建这样的系统。此外，小鼠模型在其他 体内 动物物种模型中是有用的，因为许多转基因和品系分离的小鼠品系可作为生物资源使用。因此，对于许多神经科学研究人员来说，为小鼠构建TMS-EEG组合测量系统的便捷方法是可取的。
本研究提出了一种TMS-EEG组合方法，可用于同时刺激和记录小鼠大脑，小鼠大脑是研究中使用的主要转基因动物类型，可以在典型的神经科学实验室中轻松构建。首先，描述了使用常规螺旋电极和柔性基板的低成本脑电图记录系统，以在每个实验中可重复地分配电极阵列位置。其次，磁刺激系统是使用毫米尺寸的线圈构建的，可以在典型的实验室中轻松定制。第三，TMS-EEG组合系统记录对声音和磁刺激的神经活动。本研究中提出的方法可以揭示在小动物中产生特定疾病的机制，并且可以翻译在动物模型中获得的结果以了解相应的人类疾病。

low-cost electroencephalographic recording system combined with a millimeter-sized coil to transcranially stimulate the mouse brain in vivo

这里提出了一种低成本的脑电图（EEG）记录系统，利用毫米大小的线圈 驱动 体内小鼠大脑的经颅磁刺激（TMS）。使用传统的螺旋电极与定制的、灵活的多电极阵列基板相结合，可以从小鼠大脑进行多位点记录。此外，我们还解释了如何使用实验室中常见的低成本设备生产毫米尺寸的线圈。还介绍了制造柔性多电极阵列基板的实用程序和螺杆电极的手术植入技术，这是产生低噪声脑电信号所必需的。尽管该方法对于从任何小动物的大脑中记录是有用的，但本报告侧重于麻醉小鼠头骨中的电极实施。此外，这种方法可以很容易地扩展到清醒的小动物，它通过公共适配器 与 系留电缆连接，并在录制过程中用TMS设备固定在头部。描述了当前版本的EEG-TMS系统，其最多可以包括32个EEG通道（具有16个通道的设备作为具有较少通道的示例）和一个TMS通道设备。此外，简要报告了通过将EEG-TMS系统应用于麻醉小鼠获得的典型结果。

Transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) is a promising tool for human brain science, clinical application, and animal model research because of its non-/low invasiveness. During the early stage of TMS applications, measurement of the cortical effect in response to single- and paired-pulse TMS in humans and animals was restricted to the motor cortex; easily measurable output was limited to motor evoked potentials and induced myoelectric potentials involving the motor cortex1,2. To expand the brain regions that can be measured by TMS modulation, electroencephalographic (EEG) recording was integrated with single- and paired-pulse TMS as a useful method to directly examine the excitability, connectivity, and spatiotemporal dynamics of areas throughout the whole brain3,4,5. Thus, the simultaneous application of TMS and EEG recording (TMS-EEG) to the brain has been used to probe various superficial cortical brain areas of humans and animals to investigate intracortical neural circuits (see Tremblay et al.6). Moreover, TMS-EEG systems can be used to examine additional cortical spatiotemporal characteristics, including the propagation of signals to other cortical areas and the generation of oscillatory activity7,8.
However, the mechanism of action of TMS in the brain remains speculative because of the non-invasiveness of TMS, which limits our knowledge of how the brain functions during TMS applications. Therefore, invasive translational studies in animals ranging from rodents to humans are of crucial importance to understand the mechanism of the effects of TMS on neural circuits and their activity. In particular, for combined TMS-EEG experiments in animals, a simultaneous stimulation and measurement system has not been intensively developed for small animals. Therefore, experimentalists are required to construct such a system by trial and error according to their specific experimental requirements. In addition, mouse models are useful among other in vivo animal species models because many transgenic and strain-isolated mice strains are available as biological resources. Thus, a convenient method to build a TMS-EEG-combined measurement system for mice would be desirable for many neuroscience researchers.
This study proposes a TMS-EEG-combined method that can be applied for simultaneous stimulation and recording of the mouse brain, which is the main type of transgenic animal used in research, and that can easily be constructed in typical neuroscience laboratories. First, a low-cost EEG recording system is described using conventional screw electrodes and a flexible substrate to reproducibly assign an electrode-array position in each experiment. Second, a magnetic stimulation system is constructed using a millimeter-sized coil, which can easily be custom-made in typical laboratories. Third, the TMS-EEG-combined system records neural activity in response to sound and magnetic stimulation. The method presented in this study can reveal the mechanisms that generate specific disorders in small animals, and the results obtained in the animal models can be translated to understand the corresponding human disorders.

A low-cost electroencephalographic (EEG) recording system is proposed here to drive transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) of the mouse brain in vivo, utilizing a millimeter-sized coil. Using conventional screw electrodes combined with a custom-made, flexible, multielectrode array substrate, multi-site recording can be carried out from the mouse brain. In addition, we explain how a millimeter-sized coil is produced using low-cost equipment usually found in laboratories. Practical procedures for fabricating the flexible multielectrode array substrate and the surgical implantation technique for screw electrodes are also presented, which are necessary to produce low-noise EEG signals. Although the methodology is useful for recording from the brain of any small animal, the present report focuses on electrode implementation in an anesthetized mouse skull. Furthermore, this method can be easily extended to an awake small animal that is connected with tethered cables via a common adapter and fixed with a TMS device to the head during recording.The present version of the EEG-TMS system, which can include a maximum of 32 EEG channels (a device with 16 channels is presented as an example with fewer channels) and one TMS channel device, is described. Additionally, typical results obtained by the application of the EEG-TMS system to anesthetized mice are briefly reported.
