Two types of interictal transients of reversed polarity in rat hippocampus during kindling. 1983

W J Wadman, and F H Da Silva, and L W Leung

Two different types of spontaneous interictal transients (SITs) have been found in the course of the development of an epileptogenic focus by Schaffer collateral kindling in the CA1 region of rat hippocampus. The first type has peak amplitudes of 250 microV up to 1 mV, a duration of about 80 msec and the same polarity as field potentials recorded from the same sites evoked by Schaffer collateral stimulation. These SITs occur early during kindling, but are also observed at later stages. The second type, which is dominant in later stages of kindling, has peak amplitudes of 2-3 mV, a duration of about 20 msec and the opposite polarity; in a later stage it may also contain a clear population spike. Both types can be considered as being caused by equivalent dipoles situated across the pyramidal cell layer of CA1 but with inverted polarities.

UI MeSH Term Description Entries
D007696 Kindling, Neurologic The repeated weak excitation of brain structures, that progressively increases sensitivity to the same stimulation. Over time, this can lower the threshold required to trigger seizures. Kindlings, Neurologic,Neurologic Kindling,Neurologic Kindlings
D004569 Electroencephalography Recording of electric currents developed in the brain by means of electrodes applied to the scalp, to the surface of the brain, or placed within the substance of the brain. EEG,Electroencephalogram,Electroencephalograms
D005071 Evoked Potentials Electrical responses recorded from nerve, muscle, SENSORY RECEPTOR, or area of the CENTRAL NERVOUS SYSTEM following stimulation. They range from less than a microvolt to several microvolts. The evoked potential can be auditory (EVOKED POTENTIALS, AUDITORY), somatosensory (EVOKED POTENTIALS, SOMATOSENSORY), visual (EVOKED POTENTIALS, VISUAL), or motor (EVOKED POTENTIALS, MOTOR), or other modalities that have been reported.

D006624 Hippocampus A curved elevation of GRAY MATTER extending the entire length of the floor of the TEMPORAL HORN of the LATERAL VENTRICLE (see also TEMPORAL LOBE). The hippocampus proper, subiculum, and DENTATE GYRUS constitute the hippocampal formation. Sometimes authors include the ENTORHINAL CORTEX in the hippocampal formation.
