The striatum is thought to play an important role in the spreading of epilepsy from cortical
areas to deeper brain structures, but this issue has not been addressed with intracellular …

The early cellular events that in a brain network lead to seizure generation and govern
seizure propagation are probably based on different cellular mechanisms. Experimental …

The spread of epileptiform activity was monitored in guinea‐pig neocortical slices by the use
of a voltage‐sensitive dye (RH795) and a fast optical recording technique. Epileptiform …

It has been shown that NMDA antagonists block the tonic but not the clonic component of
seizures when they are injected in the oral region of the rat pontine reticular formation (PRF) …

This study investigated the involvement of glutamatergic neurotransmission in the
epileptiform activity demonstrated in cortical weges prepared from genetically audiogenic …

We previously demonstrated kindling of synchronized bursts (ISs) by repeated sine-wave
stimulation (SW: 2–5 sec, 60 Hz, 20–50 μA, every 5 min) in the CA2/3 area of rat …

Rat neocortical slices express spontaneous epileptiform activity after incubation with GABAA
receptor blocker bicuculline (BIC, 20 μM), with potassium channel blocker 4-aminopyridine …

transients during epileptiform activity in guinea pig hippocampal slices. J. Neurophysiol. 77 …

Dopaminergic modulation of prefrontal cortex (PFC) is important for neuronal integration in
this brain region known to be involved in cognition and working memory. Because of the …

Organotypic cultured slices of the rat hippocampus undergo synaptic reorganization.
Besides the establishment of reciprocal connections between area CA1 and the dentate …
