Transcranial ultrasound stimulation is an emerging technique for the development of a non-invasive neuromodulation device for the treatment of various types of neurodegenerations and brain damages. However, there are very few studies that have quantified the optimal ultrasound dosage and the long-term associated effects of transcranial ultrasound treatments of brain diseases. In this study, we used a simple ex vivo hippocampal tissues stimulated by different dosages of ultrasound in combination with different chemical treatments to quantify the required energy for a measurable effect. After determining the most desirable ex vivo stimulation conditions, it was then replicated for the in vivo mouse brains. It was discovered that transcranial ultrasound promoted the increase of Tbr2-expressing neural progenitors in an ASIC1a-dependent manner. Furthermore, such effect was observable at least a week after the initial ultrasound treatments and was not abolished by auditory toxicity.
