ABSTRACT
<p><b>AIM</b>To observe the change of STR neuronal firing rates with high frequency stimulation of subthalamic nucleus in PD rats.</p><p><b>METHODS</b>A model of Parkinson's disease was induced by unilateral administration of 6-hydroxydopamine into right substantia nigra in rats. After the high-frequency stimulation to STN, the spontaneous firing rates of STR on normal and PD rats were recorded by using extracellular recordings.</p><p><b>RESULTS</b>Stimulation caused a direct excited effect of STR neurons in normal rats whereas a excited and inhibited effect in PD rats. The inhibited effect was correlated with the stimulation period (r = 0.94).</p><p><b>CONCLUSION</b>Stimulation to STN may inhibit the spontaneous firing rates of STR neurons in PD rats. These results also give some clues that high-frequency stimulation to STN may be a effective therapy to the clinical treatment of Parkinson's disease.</p>
