| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Male Fischer 344 rats received SCS(spinal cord stimulation) with an epidural electrode at C1-2 level for one week. After SCS, the rats were injected with KA (12mg/kg, i.p.).The behavior was monitored for 6 h following KA injection and assigned a score for seizure stage using Racine scale. As a result, SCS with a frequency of 200Hz significantly reduced seizure severity in Kainic acid induced epilepsy rats model. The result suggests that SCS with high frequency exerts anticonvulsant effects.
