Thalamus is one of the subcortical structures that commonly manifest with lacunar infarcts on MRI of the brain. Studies have shown that thalamus infarction is associated with cognitive decline. However, due to the lack of proper animal models, little is known about the mechanism. We aimed to establish a focal thalamus infarction model, characterise the infarct lesion and assess functional effects.<\/jats:p>\n               <\/jats:sec>\n               <jats:sec>\n                  <jats:title>Methods<\/jats:title>\n                  <jats:p>Male C57BL\/6J mice were anaesthetised, and Rose Bengal dye was injected through the tail vein. The right thalamus was illuminated with green laser light by stereotactic implantation of optic fibre. Characteristics of the infarct and lesion evolution were evaluated by histological analysis and 7T MRI at various times. The cognitive and neurological functions were assessed by behavioural tests. Retrograde tracing was performed to analyse neural connections.<\/jats:p>\n               <\/jats:sec>\n               <jats:sec>\n                  <jats:title>Results<\/jats:title>\n                  <jats:p>An ischaemic lesion with small vessel occlusion was observed in the thalamus. It became a small circumscribed infarct with reactive astrocytes accumulated in the infarct periphery on day 21. The mice with thalamic infarction demonstrated impaired learning and memory without significant neurological deficits. Retrogradely labelled neurons in the retrosplenial granular cortex were reduced.<\/jats:p>\n               <\/jats:sec>\n               <jats:sec>\n                  <jats:title>Conclusion<\/jats:title>\n                  <jats:p>This study established a mouse model of thalamic lacunar infarction that exhibits cognitive impairment. Neural connection dysfunctions may play a potential role in post-stroke cognitive impairment. This model helps to clarify the pathophysiology of post-stroke cognitive impairment and to develop potential therapies.<\/jats:p>\n               <\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.1136\/svn-2022-002235","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2023,4,25]],"date-time":"2023-04-25T11:32:47Z","timestamp":1682422367000},"page":"444-452","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1136\/crossmarkpolicy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":6,"title":["Photochemically induced thalamus infarction impairs cognition in a mouse model"],"prefix":"10.1136","volume":"8","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-9177-7031","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Chen","family":"Zhang","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Neurology, Beijing Tiantan Hospital, Capital Medical University, Beijing, China"},{"name":"China National Clinical Research Center for Neurological Diseases, Beijing, China"},{"name":"Advanced Innovation Center for Human Brain Protection, Capital Medical University, Beijing, China"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-0504-7583","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Shiping","family":"Li","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Neurology, Beijing Tiantan Hospital, Capital Medical University, Beijing, China"},{"name":"China National Clinical Research Center for Neurological Diseases, Beijing, China"},{"name":"Advanced Innovation Center for Human Brain Protection, Capital Medical University, Beijing, China"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-9976-2341","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Yongjun","family":"Wang","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Neurology, Beijing Tiantan Hospital, Capital Medical University, Beijing, China"},{"name":"China National Clinical Research Center for Neurological Diseases, Beijing, China"},{"name":"Advanced Innovation Center for Human Brain Protection, Capital Medical University, Beijing, China"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Jiong","family":"Shi","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Neurology, Beijing Tiantan Hospital, Capital Medical University, Beijing, China"},{"name":"China National Clinical Research Center for Neurological Diseases, Beijing, China"},{"name":"Advanced Innovation Center for Human Brain Protection, Capital Medical University, Beijing, China"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"239","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2023,4,25]]},"reference":[{"key":"2025081709331527000_8.6.444.1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/S1474-4422(10)70104-6"},{"key":"2025081709331527000_8.6.444.2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/S1474-4422(19)30079-1"},{"key":"2025081709331527000_8.6.444.3","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/S1474-4422(05)70221-0"},{"key":"2025081709331527000_8.6.444.4","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.3389\/fnsys.2013.00045"},{"key":"2025081709331527000_8.6.444.5","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1523\/JNEUROSCI.22-05-01922.2002"},{"key":"2025081709331527000_8.6.444.6","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1046\/j.1460-9568.2000.00039.x"},{"key":"2025081709331527000_8.6.444.7","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/s1474-4422(21)00060-0"},{"key":"2025081709331527000_8.6.444.8","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1161\/STROKEAHA.108.527853"},{"key":"2025081709331527000_8.6.444.9","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","unstructured":"Song H , Park JY , Kim HS , et al .
