Establishment of kainic acid induced temporal lobe epilepsy in rat and study of its neurogenesis
Objective To establish kainite quickly induced emporal epilepsy rat model. Methods Kainic acid was continuously injected into right lateral ventricle of rat via stereotactic technique to make an epileptic focus. The behavior of the rats was recorded by a video camera. EEG signal was recorded by an EEG polygraph. The pathologic changes were observed with Nissl and BrdU staining. Results The changes in behavior and EEG experienced three phases
which were acute
silent and chronic. According to Racine’s scale
8 rats were classified as type Ⅴ
12 as type Ⅳ
2 as type Ⅲ and the other 2 as type Ⅱ. The spike waves originated from hippocampus and spread to amygdala and frontal lobe. Pathologic changes showed that prolonged seizures induced pyramid cell loss in the hippocampus. BrdU labeled cells mainly localized in dentate gyrus(P0.01). Conclusion The kainic acid induced rat model is an ideal animal model to simulate human temporal lobe epilepsy. Development of epilepsy is accompanied by enhanced neurogenesis in the hippocampus.
