| Research Abstract |
On embryonic day (E) 18, a frozen probe was placed on the frontal scalp of a Sprague-Dawley rat embryo through the uterus wall to produce multiple (two to four) freeze lesions on each hemisphere. Rats were divided into group A (four freeze lesions) and group B (two freeze lesions). EEG video monitoring for rat pups was performed from postnatal day (P) 35 to P77. Brain tissue was examined by immunohistochemistry, including semi-quantitative densitometry. 68.8% of the rats with multiple FCDs showed spontaneous hippocampal seizures which began by movement cessation and culminated in wet-dog shakes during periods of hippocampal discharge, from P47 onwards. Furthermore, immunoreactivities for N-methyl-D-aspartate receptors and glutamate transporters both in FCD lesions and in hippocampi were significantly enhanced compared to controls. Prenatal freeze-lesioning of the brain during embryonic development leads to spontaneous temporal lobe seizures in a rat model with multiple FCDs.
