چکیده

Research was conducted studying the peculiarities of development of pharmacological kindling in rats with different tolerance to hypoxia. Kindling was evoked by injecting subconvulsive doses of corazol (25 mg per kg) every day. Intensity of convulsions was expressed in points. Reliable distinction in intensity of convulsion between low-tolerant rats and high-tolerant rats to hypoxia was found on the 17th day of stimulation; amongst the group of low-tolerant rats the intensity of convulsions was found to be 2.46 + 0.30 points, and amongst the group of high-tolerant rats--1.20 + 0.22 points (p 0.05). On the 23rd day of injection the preparation convulsions in the group of low-tolerant rats reached up to 4.00 + 0.20 points and in the group of high-tolerant rats 2.28 + 0.45 points (p 0.01). The changes of violation of behavior were found to be different. Thus, the higher the individual resistance to hypoxia, the more is the resistance of the animal to the effect of epileptogens.

Purpose: It was suggested that high audiogenic epilepsy (AE) susceptibility in rats of Krushinsky-Molodkina (KM) rat strain could be accompanied by increase in general seizure proneness. This could be tested exploring the reaction to low corazol doses in these rats and in rats of genetically related but non-prone to AE strain (strain “0”), which was used as control,. Method: 6 months old male r...

A LTERATION OF PENTYL ENETETRAZOLINDUCED KINDLING PARAMETERS BY PRETREATMENT OF RATS WITH PROPYLTHIOURACIL AND LEAD ACETATE

Lead is known to be a potent neurotoxin that can cause seizure activity in humans and animals. Also, epileptic type convulsion is a known complication of hypothyroidism. This study was performed to determine the effect of propylthiouracil (PTU)-induced hypothyroidism and chronic lead exposure on pentylenetetrazol (PTZ)-induced kindling parameters. The test was carried out by using male alb...

Assessment of the Optimal Stimulus Pattern to Achieve Rapid Dorsal Hippocampal Kindling in Rats

Introduction: Although hippocampus is the most famous brain area involved in temporal lobe epilepsy, hippocampal kindling (HK) develops very slowly. Hence, rapid kindling is usually preferred to the traditional kindling and it is widely used. In this article we aimed at finding the optimal stimulus pattern, which yields the fastest HK rate. Methods: Stimulus patterns with different duratio...

Comparing the Anticonvulsant Effects of Low Frequency Stimulation of Different Brain Sites on the Amygdala Kindling Acquisition in Rats

Low frequency stimulation (LFS) is a potential alternative therapy for epilepsy. However, it seems that the anticonvulsant effects of LFS depend on its target sites in the brain. Thus, the present study was designed to compare the anticonvulsant effects of LFS administered to amygdala, piriform cortex and substantia nigra on amygdala kindling acquisition. In control group, rats were kindled in ...

Chemical kindling enhances the Schaffer collateral-CAl pyramidal cell synaptic transmission in anesthetized rats

Epilepsy is one of the common disorders in human community. Clinical observations have shown that epileptic patients have often difficulty in learning and memory. Kindling is a laboratory model for studying epilepsy and its complications. This experiment was designed to study the effect of chemical kindling on Schaffer collateral-CA1 pyramidal cell synaptic transmission using pentylenetetrazole...
