Rodent models used in preclinical studies of deep brain stimulation to rescue memory deficits.

Abstract FAILLOT, M., A. CHAILLET, S. PALFI and S. SENOVA. Rodent models used in preclinical studies of deep brain stimulation to rescue memory deficits…NEUROSCI BIOBEHAV REV 21(1) XXX-XXX, YEAR.- Deep brain stimulation paradigms might be used to treat memory disorders in patients with stroke or traumatic brain injury. However, proof of concept studies in animal models are needed before clinical translation. We propose here a comprehensive review of rodent models for Traumatic Brain Injury and Stroke. We systematically review the histological, behavioral and electrophysiological features of each model and identify those that are the most relevant for translational research.
