摘要:
Disclosed is an apparatus for stimulating living body including a light source unit which irradiates an optical signal for generating an electrical signal; a photovoltaic cell unit which generates an electrical signal using a received optical signal; and an electrode unit which stimulates living body using the electrical signal, wherein the photovoltaic cell unit and the electrode unit are implanted in the living body. The apparatus for stimulating living body may be manufactured in a flexible form, so that it may extend the range of choice for site to be implanted for the apparatus. Further, the adoption of the photovoltaic cell unit avoids the need of surgical operation for the change of battery.

Disclosed are a novel, elastic, biocompatible, micro-sized, polyimide-based multi-channel microelectrode for recording of electroencephalography (EEG) from a laboratory animal including mouse, and a method for recording of laboratory animal EEG using the microelectrode. The microelectrode may include 2 grounding electrodes and 32 recording electrodes. A connector for signal transmission easily connects the microelectrode to a signal acquiring apparatus. The total weight of the microelectrode, including the connector, does not exceed 150 mg. Laboratory animal EEG, including that of mouse, provides the advantage of monitoring the brain state of a freely moving animal following a genetic or pharmaceutical manipulation. The microelectrode can be implanted without surgery and may be detached from wires while EEG is not recorded from the laboratory animal. The microelectrode can successfully acquire broadband EEG signals from the skull of the laboratory animal and is effective in monitoring spatial and temporal pattern of brain activities of the laboratory animal.

This disclosure relates to a micro manipulator having a simple structure and having high possibility of recording a biological signal of a neuron at a desired position by improving positioning resolution of an electrode disposed adjacent to a subject's brain neuron or an electrode holder attached with the electrode. The micro manipulator according to the disclosure includes: a motor which includes a shaft and a vibration portion; a mobile which is connected to the shaft so as to be movable along the shaft; and a frame which supports the motor, wherein an electrode is connected to the mobile in a direction parallel to a longitudinal direction of the shaft, and wherein when the mobile moves linearly in accordance with a vibration of the shaft due to the vibration portion, the electrode moves linearly.

摘要:
The present invention relates to a method for the prevention and treatment of essential tremor by blocking α1G T-type calcium channel, a preventive and therapeutic agent for essential tremor containing the α1G T-type calcium channel blocker as an active ingredient, and a screening method of a preventive and therapeutic agent for essential tremor by investigating α1G T-type calcium channel blocking activity. More precisely, the present invention relates to a method for the prevention and treatment of essential tremor by using α1G T-type calcium channel blocker, for which the inventors confirmed that the α1G T-type calcium channel knock out mice (α1G −/−) had resistance against essential tremor and when the T-type channel blocker was administered to the wild type mice (α1G +/+), they gained resistance against essential tremor.
摘要:
The present invention relates to a novel use of an α1G T-type calcium channel transgenic mouse as a nervous disease model, more particularly, a novel use of a mouse deficient in α1G T-type calcium channel showing novelty-seeking and alcohol preference as a nervous disease model for human nervous related diseases such as novelty-seeking character, alcoholism, anxiety and emotion disorder by stress, etc. The α1G T-type channel transgenic mice showing novelty-seeking and alcohol preference of the present invention can be effectively used for the development of a medicine and a therapeutic method for human nervous diseases.
摘要:
The disclosure concerns a method for resistance of epilepsy by suppressing the function of alpha 1G protein of T-type calcium channels, use of suppressor of alpha 1G protein for prevention or treatment for epilepsy, knockout mice resisting epilepsy by disrupting alpha 1G subunit of T-type calcium channel, and preparation method thereof. The α1G-knockout transgenic mouse can be used for investigating the relationship between diseases particularly neuropathy or psychopathy and the function of α1G T-type calcium channel via various behavioral tests since α1G subunit is mainly expression in central nervous system (CNS) and pheripheral nervous system (PNS). Further, the α1G-knockout transgenic mouse can be used for screening antileptic agents.
