This study demonstrates BCSFB opening in rats by single pulse of low-energy focused shockwave (FSW, energy flux density 0.03 mJ/mm2, 2 × 106 microbubbles/kg) treatment at lateral ventricle, resulting in significantly elevated cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) concentrations of systemically-administered gastrodin (GTD) (4 times vs. control within 3 hrs) that remained detectable for 24 hrs. The FSW-GTD group had significantly lower Racine's scale (<4) and zero mortality (n = 30) after lithium-pilocarpine-induced epilepsy. Electrophysiological recordings showed decreased epileptiform discharges, and brain section histology revealed reduced inflammation, oxidative stress and apoptosis, when compared with groups without FSW (Racine's scale: 4 ∼ 5; mortality: 26.67 ∼ 36.67%). FSW-mediated BCSFB opening provides a promising alternative for controlled-delivery of therapeutics into the CNS, offering rapid and widespread medication distribution. The technique could by applied in the development of novel therapies for various CNS diseases. |
