Description

Direct current bias type pulse-based targeted cell ablation system
Technical Field
The embodiment of the disclosure relates to the technical field of medical treatment, in particular to a targeted cell ablation system based on direct-current bias type pulse.
Background
The irreversible electroporation effect caused by the pulse electric field has gradually become a research hotspot of the bioelectromagnetic. The irreversible electroporation effect refers to the phenomenon that under the action of a pulse electric field with high enough strength, micropores on a cell membrane cannot be closed automatically, the structural integrity of the cell membrane is damaged, various particles continuously enter and exit the cell through the micropores, stable unbalance is caused in the cell, and the death of the cell is induced.
However, when ablating tissue cells using conventional pulsed electric fields, there are often problems:
firstly, due to the non-uniform characteristics of the electrical parameters of the biological tissue, the distribution of the pulse electric field in a partial area is distorted, so that cells can only generate reversible electroporation, and a residual focal zone appears in situ in target area tissues, thereby reducing the ablation efficiency;
second, due to the inherent electric field distribution characteristics of the needle electrodes when delivering pulses, a wide range of reversible electroporation zones in the tissue can be created. This area is unavoidable, thereby preventing further enlargement of the intended tissue ablation area, which in turn results in a gradual decrease in ablation efficiency with increasing intended tissue size.

In a first aspect, some embodiments of the present disclosure provide a dc bias pulse-based targeted cell ablation system, where the dc bias pulse-based targeted cell ablation system includes: a direct current electric field generating device, a high voltage pulse electric field generating device, a direct current bias type pulse generating device and an applying device, wherein: the dc electric field generating device is connected to the dc offset pulse generating device, and the dc electric field generating device is configured to generate a dc electric field and send the dc electric field to the dc offset pulse generating device; the high-voltage pulse electric field generating device is connected with the direct-current bias type pulse generating device, wherein the high-voltage pulse electric field generating device is used for generating a high-voltage pulse electric field and sending the high-voltage pulse electric field to the direct-current bias type pulse generating device; the dc bias type pulse generating device is connected to the applying device, and the dc bias type pulse generating device is configured to receive the dc electric field and the high voltage pulse electric field, and combine the dc electric field and the high voltage pulse electric field to generate a dc bias type pulse; the applying device is used for receiving the direct current bias type pulse sent by the direct current bias type pulse generating device and applying the direct current bias type pulse to a preset target tissue for cell ablation.
In some embodiments, the above-mentioned application device comprises: parameter setting means and pulse transmission device, wherein: the parameter setting device is connected with the direct current bias type pulse generating device and used for receiving the direct current bias type pulse sent by the direct current bias type pulse generating device and carrying out parameter setting on the direct current bias type pulse based on the preset target tissue so as to generate direct current bias type pulse parameters.
In some embodiments, the pulse transmitting device is configured to receive the dc bias type pulse parameters transmitted by the parameter setting device, and apply the dc bias type pulse to a preset target tissue based on the dc bias type pulse parameters.
In some embodiments, the dc electric field generated by the dc electric field generating device is between 1 minute and 1 hour during the interval of the pulsed electric field generated by the high voltage pulsed electric field generating device and after the subsequent combined action with the pulsed electric field.
In some embodiments, the voltage range of the high-voltage pulsed electric field generated by the high-voltage pulsed electric field generating device is between 0 and 5 kV.
In some embodiments, the high-voltage pulse electric field generated by the high-voltage pulse electric field generating device has a width ranging from 500ns to 1 ms.
In some embodiments, the frequency range of the high-voltage pulsed electric field generated by the high-voltage pulsed electric field generating device is between 0.1Hz and 100 kHz.
In some embodiments, the number of the high-voltage pulsed electric fields generated by the high-voltage pulsed electric field generating device ranges from 1 to 300.
In some embodiments, the voltage range of the dc electric field generated by the dc electric field generating device is between 5V and 50V.
In a second aspect, some embodiments of the present disclosure provide an electronic device, comprising: one or more processors; a storage device having one or more programs stored thereon, which when executed by one or more processors, cause the one or more processors to implement the method described in any of the implementations of the first aspect.
In a third aspect, some embodiments of the present disclosure provide a computer readable medium on which a computer program is stored, wherein the program, when executed by a processor, implements the method described in any of the implementations of the first aspect.
The above embodiments of the present disclosure have the following advantages: first, a direct current electric field may be generated by a direct current electric field generating device. Therefore, the strong electrolysis effect is generated by applying direct current, so that the preset tissue cells subjected to reversible electroporation after the pulsed electric field treatment can be effectively eliminated. Secondly, a high-voltage pulse electric field can be generated by a high-voltage pulse electric field generating device. This provides a necessary condition for the subsequent generation of the dc bias type pulse. Then, the dc bias type pulse generator may combine the dc electric field and the high voltage pulse electric field to generate a dc bias type pulse. Thereby enabling subsequent application of the predetermined tissue to provide support. Finally, the above-mentioned dc bias type pulse may be applied to a predetermined tissue by an applying device to perform ablation. And because the direct current is added into the direct current bias type pulse, the electrolysis effect generated by the direct current can effectively remove the residual tissue cells, and the ablation efficiency is improved. Therefore, the problem that due to the uneven characteristic of the electrical parameters of the biological tissue, the distribution of the pulse electric field in partial areas is distorted, so that reversible electroporation can only be carried out on cells, and a residual focal zone appears in situ in target area tissues, thereby reducing the ablation efficiency is solved. On the other hand, the inherent electric field distribution characteristic of needle electrodes in pulse delivery results in the generation of a relatively large, unavoidable reversible electroporation zone in the tissue. However, when the direct current bias type pulse is adopted, the reversible electroporation cells in the area can be ablated through the electrolysis effect of the direct current bias type pulse, so that the ablation efficiency is further improved. Thereby solving the two technical problems mentioned in the background art. Furthermore, if the frequency of application of the pulsed electric field in cell ablation is in the range of 0.1-10Hz, therefore, simply applying a DC bias electric field during the pulsed electric field interval does not significantly increase the treatment time.

And solves two technical problems mentioned in the background art. Furthermore, if the frequency of application of the pulsed electric field in cell ablation is in the range of 0.1-10Hz, therefore, simply applying a DC bias electric field during the pulsed electric field interval does not significantly increase the treatment time.
With continued reference to fig. 3, a schematic structural diagram of another embodiment of the dc bias pulse-based targeted cell ablation system of the present disclosure is shown.

For a specific structural relationship, reference may be made to the related description in the embodiment of fig. 2, which is not described herein again.

The parameter setting device 5 may support parameter adjustment of the dc offset type pulse. The pulse transmitter 6 may be any of various devices for transmitting pulses (e.g., a plate electrode, a concentric needle electrode, a double-needle electrode, a single-needle electrode, a multi-lead needle electrode, etc.).

The pulse transmitting device is used for receiving the direct current bias type pulse parameters transmitted by the parameter setting device and applying the direct current bias type pulse to a preset target tissue based on the direct current bias type pulse parameters.

Unlike the targeted cell ablation system based on the dc bias type pulse in the embodiment of fig. 2, the voltage range of the high-voltage pulsed electric field generated by the high-voltage pulsed electric field generating device 2 in this embodiment is between 0 and 5 kV.
Unlike the targeted cell ablation system based on the dc bias type pulse in the embodiment of fig. 2, the width of the high-voltage pulsed electric field generated by the high-voltage pulsed electric field generating device 2 in this embodiment ranges from 500ns to 1 ms.

The dc-biased pulse generator 3 and the related contents serve as an inventive point of the present disclosure, thereby solving the technical problem mentioned in the background art that "a reversible electroporation region with a large range is generated in the tissue due to the inherent electric field distribution characteristic when the needle electrode is used to transmit the pulse". This area is unavoidable, thereby preventing further enlargement of the intended tissue ablation area, resulting in a gradual decrease in ablation efficiency with increasing intended tissue size ". The factors that lead to the gradual decrease in ablation efficiency with increasing preset tissue size tend to be as follows: the inherent electric field distribution characteristics of conventional pulses result in a relatively large range of reversible electroporation zones in the desired tissue. This area is more difficult to avoid, thus preventing further enlargement of the intended tissue ablation area. If the above-mentioned factors are solved, the ablation region of the preset tissue can be further enlarged, thereby increasing the ablation efficiency. In order to achieve the above advantageous effects, the present disclosure introduces a direct current bias type pulse generating device 3. Here, the dc bias type pulse generating device 3 is introduced for generating a dc bias type pulse by a high voltage pulse electric field and a dc electric field. The reversible electroporation region generated by the pulse component when the needle electrode transmits the generated DC bias type pulse electric field is converted into the ablation region through the DC component in the DC bias type pulse. Therefore, the ablation area of the preset tissue can be effectively enlarged, and the ablation efficiency is effectively improved.
The above embodiments of the present disclosure have the following advantages: first, a direct current electric field may be generated by a direct current electric field generating device. Therefore, the strong electrolysis effect is generated by applying direct current, so that the preset tissue cells subjected to reversible electroporation after the pulsed electric field treatment can be effectively eliminated. Secondly, a high-voltage pulse electric field can be generated by a high-voltage pulse electric field generating device. This provides a necessary condition for the subsequent generation of the dc bias type pulse. Then, the dc bias type pulse generator may combine the dc electric field and the high voltage pulse electric field to generate a dc bias type pulse. Thereby enabling subsequent application of the predetermined tissue to provide support. Finally, the above-mentioned dc bias type pulse may be applied to a predetermined tissue by an applying device to perform ablation. And because the direct current is added into the direct current bias type pulse, the electrolysis effect generated by the direct current can effectively remove the residual tissue cells, and the ablation efficiency is improved. Therefore, the problem that due to the uneven characteristic of the electrical parameters of the biological tissue, the distribution of the pulse electric field in partial areas is distorted, so that reversible electroporation can only be carried out on cells, and a residual focal zone appears in situ in target area tissues, thereby reducing the ablation efficiency is solved. On the other hand, the inherent electric field distribution characteristic of needle electrodes in pulse delivery results in the generation of a relatively large, unavoidable reversible electroporation zone in the tissue. However, when the direct current bias type pulse is adopted, the reversible electroporation cells in the area can be ablated through the electrolysis effect of the direct current bias type pulse, so that the ablation efficiency is further improved. Thereby solving the two technical problems mentioned in the background art. Furthermore, if the frequency of application of the pulsed electric field in cell ablation is in the range of 0.1-10Hz, therefore, simply applying a DC bias electric field during the pulsed electric field interval does not significantly increase the treatment time.
With continued reference to fig. 4, shown is an output waveform schematic of some embodiments of a dc-biased pulse-based targeted cell ablation system according to the present disclosure.
In some embodiments, the width of the high voltage pulsed electric field may be in the order of nanoseconds or microseconds or milliseconds. The width of the high voltage pulsed electric field may be in the range of 500ns to 1 ms. The frequency of the high voltage pulsed electric field may be in the range of 0.1Hz to 100 kHz. The voltage of the high voltage pulsed electric field may be in the range of 0 to 5 kV. Correspondingly, the voltage of the dc electric field may be in the range of 5V to 50V. The action time of the direct current electric field can be in the range of 1 minute to 1 hour.
With continued reference to fig. 5, an experimental schematic of the output waveform of some embodiments of a dc-biased pulse-based targeted cell ablation system according to the present disclosure is shown.
The experimental procedure was as follows:
firstly, the liver tissue of white rabbit in New Zealand is taken as an experimental object to research the ablation effect of the direct current bias type pulse electric field on the biological tissue. 3 New Zealand white rabbits (female, 6 months old, body weight 2.5 kg. + -. 0.2kg) were prepared. The experiment strictly executes relevant regulations in the experimental animal management regulations of the people's republic of China. The output voltage and current of the direct current bias type pulse can be collected by an oscilloscope. The electrode used in the experiment was a stainless steel double needle electrode. The electrode needle center spacing is 5 mm. The diameter is 1 mm. The exposed length was 8 mm.
In the second step, before the liver tissue was pulsed, anesthesia was first performed by injection of 3% sodium pentobarbital solution through the rabbit ear vein (1 mL/kg). The anesthesia duration is more than 1 hour, and sufficient time is provided for the experimental operation. During the experiment, the rabbits were fixed on the operating table in a lying position, and the new zealand white rabbits were subjected to surgical laparotomy. The electrode needles adopt spacers to fix the distance, and the distance between the centers of the electrode needles can be 5 mm. Pulse electric fields with different parameters are respectively applied through electrode needles, after pulse treatment is finished, a medical suture line is adopted to suture the abdominal wound of the rabbit, and the sutured New Zealand white rabbit is placed in a sterile animal laboratory to be raised for 3 days.
And thirdly, feeding the new zealand white rabbits in an animal laboratory for 3 days, euthanizing the experimental rabbits, opening the abdomen and taking out liver tissues. And taking a picture of the ablation region of the fresh liver tissue by adopting a preset camera, and counting the ablation region by adopting preset software. Each set of parameters was repeated three times and statistical difference analysis was performed using a one-way variance method. After sampling, the samples were soaked in 10% formalin solution for 72 hours. Then embedding the cells into paraffin for fixation, cutting the paraffin to prepare tissue sections, and observing whether the morphological structure of the cells is complete or not through H & E staining.
Experimental results As can be seen in FIG. 5, when a high-voltage pulse electric field is applied alone, the ablation area of the predetermined tissue may be 39mm2. When applied separatelyIn the case of a DC electric field, the ablation area of the preset tissue can be 40mm2. While the preset tissue ablation area may be 77mm when applying a DC bias type pulse2. It is known that the application of the dc bias type pulse has an effect of increasing the ablation area compared to the application of the high voltage pulse alone or the application of the dc electric field alone.
With continued reference to fig. 6, a graph of tissue H & E staining results for some embodiments of a dc-biased pulse-based targeted cell ablation system according to the present disclosure is shown.
Referring to the above experimental examples, after the H & E staining scan of the liver tissue, the boundary between the liver tissue ablation region and the normal tissue can be observed more clearly and accurately. Take the DC bias type pulse (high voltage pulse electric field parameters 50, 1500V, 0.5Hz, 10 mus pulse and DC electric field parameters 1 minute, 25V pulse) as an example. The actual liver tissue is composed of liver lobules, blood vessels and bile ducts, and the structural heterogeneity thereof causes the difference of electrical parameters thereof. The actual electric field distribution is not a standard dumbbell or ellipse. As can be seen from fig. 6, the ablation boundary is very clear and no residual cells are present.
The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the application and is illustrative of the principles of the technology employed.
