Outline of Final Research Achievements |
On embryonic day (E) 18, a frozen prove was placed on the frontal scalp of a Sprague-Dawley rat embryo through the uterus wall to produce multiple (one or two) freeze lesions on each hemisphere. FCD rat models were divided to group A (one lesion on the left), group B (two lesions on the left) and group C (one lesion on the each frontal areas). All rats were performed EEG monitoring with electrical stimulation onto the scalp electrodes from postnatalday (P) 1 to P7. The number of animals of group C showing myoclonic seizure was significantly more than the other groups on P1, however there was no significance between all groups through the stimulations. Immunoreactivities for N-methyl-D-aspertate receptors and glutamate transporters in FCD lesions were significantly enhanced compared to controls.
