This study confirmed that pathological high frequency oscillations (pHFOs) occur during the UP-DOWN transition of slow wave activity and disrupt temporal correlations between brain regions. These findings suggest that pHFOs may interfere with information transmission and memory consolidation.
Objective: To confirm and investigate why pathological HFOs (pHFOs), including Ripples [80-200 Hz] and fast ripples [200-600 Hz], are generated during the UP-DOWN transition of the slow wave and if pHFOs interfere with information transmission. Methods: We isolated 217 total units from 175.95 iEEG contact-hours of synchronized macro- and microelectrode recordings from 6 patients. Sleep slow oscillation (0.1-2 Hz) epochs were identified in the iEEG recording. iEEG HFOs that occurred superimposed on the slow wave were transformed to phasors and adjusted by the phase of maximum firing in nearby units (i.e., maximum UP). We tested whether, in the seizure onset zone (SOZ), HFOs and associated action potentials (AP) occur more often at the UP-DOWN transition. We also examined ripple temporal correlations using cross correlograms. Results: At the group level in the SOZ, HFO and HFO-associated AP probability was highest during the UP-DOWN transition of slow wave excitability (p<<0.001). In the non-SOZ, HFO and HFO-associated AP was highest during the DOWN-UP transition (p<<0.001). At the unit level in the SOZ, 15.6% and 20% of units exhibited more robust firing during ripples (Cohen's d=0.11-0.83) and fast ripples (d=0.36-0.90) at the UP-DOWN transition (p<0.05 f.d.r corrected), respectively. By comparison, also in the SOZ, 6.6% (d=0.14-0.30) and 8.5% (d=0.33-0.41) of units had significantly less firing during ripples and fast ripples at the UP-DOWN transition, respectively. Additional data shows ripple temporal correlations, involving global slow waves, between the hippocampus, entorhinal cortex, and parahippocampal gyrus were reduced by similar to 50-80% in the SOZ compared to the non-SOZ (N=3). Significance: The UP-DOWN transition of slow wave excitability facilitates the activation of pathological neurons to generate pHFOs. The pathological neurons and pHFOs disrupt ripple temporal correlations across brain regions that transfer information and may be important in memory consolidation.
