adenosine a10 receptors activity of entorhinal cortex on amygdala kindled seizures in rat

Authors
abstract

introduction: the role of adenosine a1 receptors of the entorhinal cortex on amygdaloid kindled seizures was investigated. material and methods: animals were kindled by daily electrical stimulation of amygdala. in the full kindled animals, n6-cyclohexyladenosine (cha; 0.1, 1 and 10 mm), an adenosine a1 receptor agonist, and 8-cyclopenthyle 1,3-dimethylexanthine (cpt), an adenosine a1 receptor antagonist, at concentrations of 1 and 5mm were injected bilaterally into the entorhinal cortex. animals were stimulated at 5, 15, 60 and 120 min post drug infusion and kindling parameters were measured. results: results showed that cha at concentration of 10 mm reduced amygdala after-discharge duration, entrorhinal cortex after-discharge duration (e-add) and stage 5 seizure duration at 5, 15,60 and 120 min post drug injection. it also increased the latency of stage 4 seizure. but, no alteration was observed in seizure stage. at concentrations of 1 and 0.1 mm, cha reduced e-add only at 5 and 15min post drug infusion. bilateral injection of cpt into the entorhinalcortex did not alter seizure parameters. intra-entorhinal cortex injection of cpt (5mm), 5 min before cha (10mm), blocked the anticonvulsant effects of cha. conclusion: these results suggest that the entorhinal cortex has a role in seizure propagation from the amygdala and its adenosine a1 receptors activity have anticonvulsant effects on amygdala kindled seizures.

بررسی و مقایسه اثرات ضد تشنجی گیرندهای آدنوزینی A1 در ناحیه CA1 هیپوکمپ بر شدت تشنجهای ایجاد شده به روش کیندلینگ الکتریکی آمیگدال و قشر انتورینال موش صحرایی

Introduction & Objective: In the CNS, adenosine is known to suppress repetitive neuronal Firing, suggesting a role as an endogenous modifier of seizures. Indeed, intracerebral adenosine concentrations rise acutely during seizure activity and are thought to be responsible for terminating seizures and establishing a period of post-ictal refractoriness. However, it is unclear whether this suppre...

the role of adenosine a1 receptor activity of piriform cortex neurons on amygdala kindled seizures in rats

introduction: considering the anticonvulsant effects of a1 adenosine receptors and the anatomical connections between pjriform cortex and amygdala, in this study, the role of a1 adenosine receptors activity of piriform cortex neurons on amygdala kindled seizures was investigated in rats. material and methods: the rats were fully kindled by daily electrical stimulation of amygdala. n6-cyclohexyl...

The effect of intraperitoneal injection of N6-cyclohexyladenosine, a selective adenosine A1 receptor agonist, on entorhinal cortex-kindled seizures in rats

The effects of intraperitoneal injection of N6-cyclohexyladenosine (CHA, a selective adenosine A1 receptor agonist) and 8-cyclopenthyle-I-3-dimethylexanthine (CPT, a selective adenosine A1 receptor antagonist) on entorhinal cortex-kindled seizures were investigated. Fully entorhinal cortex-kindled rats received normal saline (control), CHA (0.06, 0.12 and 0.25 mg/kg) or CPT (0.06 and 0.12 mg/kg...

The effect of parameters of low-frequency electrical stimulation on piriform-cortex kindled seizures in rat

Introduction: Electrical low-frequency stimulation (LFS) has antiepileptic effect, but the role of different stimulation parameters on this effect has not been determined. In this study the effect of different LFS parameters (intensity, pulse duration and train duration) on piriform-cortex kindled seizures was investigated. Methods: Seizure was produced in animals using kindling model of ep...
