Exposure to Predator Stress in Gestational Period Potentiates Pilocarpine induced Epileptic Behaviors in offspring of rat
Introduction: Gestational stress can lead to cerebral functional disorders, such as epilepsy, probably due to the disturbance in the cerebral maturation and causing abnormal neuronal correlations. In the present study, effect of gestational Predator Stress on the neonatal epileptic behaviors was investigated in rats. Methods: Female rats (200 ± 20 g) were divided into two groups intact pregn...
متن کاملEffect of Restraint Stress during Gestation on Pentylenetetrazol-Induced Epileptic Behaviors in Rat Offspring
Objective(s): Epilepsy is a neurodevelopmental disorder which is strongly influenced by genetic and environmental factors. Gestational stress has been shown to be an important factor for affecting seizure susceptibility. The present study was conducted to address whether gestational stress may affect pentylentetrazol (PTZ)-induced epileptic behavior in rat offspring in a sex- and a...
متن کاملA New Rat Model of Epileptic Spasms Based on Methylazoxymethanol-Induced Malformations of Cortical Development
Malformations of cortical development (MCDs) can cause medically intractable epilepsies and cognitive disabilities in children. We developed a new model of MCD-associated epileptic spasms by treating rats prenatally with methylazoxymethanol acetate (MAM) to induce cortical malformations and postnatally with N-methyl-d-aspartate (NMDA) to induce spasms. To produce cortical malformations to infan...
متن کاملPrenatal maternal stress programs infant stress regulation.
OBJECTIVE Prenatal exposure to inappropriate levels of glucocorticoids (GCs) and maternal stress are putative mechanisms for the fetal programming of later health outcomes. The current investigation examined the influence of prenatal maternal cortisol and maternal psychosocial stress on infant physiological and behavioral responses to stress. METHODS The study sample comprised 116 women and t...
متن کاملCalpain activation contributes to hyperglycaemia-induced apoptosis in cardiomyocytes.
AIMS Cardiomyocyte apoptosis contributes to cardiac complications of diabetes. The aim of this study was to investigate the role of calpain in cardiomyocyte apoptosis induced by hyperglycaemia. METHODS AND RESULTS In cultured adult rat ventricular cardiomyocytes, high glucose (33 mM) increased calpain activity and induced apoptosis, concomitant with the impairment of Na+/K+ ATPase activity. T...
