Spatial and temporal evolution of neuronal activation, stress and injury in lithium–pilocarpine seizures in adult rats

Abstract: In order to follow the spatial and temporal evolution of neuronal damage, cellular activation and stress responses subsequent to lithium-pilocarpine seizures of various durations in the adult rat, we analyzed the expression of Fos protein and local cerebral glucose utilization as markers of cellular activation, HSP72 immunoreactivity and acid fuchsin staining as indicators of cellular stress and injury, and Cresyl violet staining for the assessment of neuronal damage. The expression of Fos appeared very early,… Show more

“…Lesions in the hippocampus (CA1, CA3, and the hilus), amygdala, and piriform and entorhinal cortices begin to appear as soon as the first hour of SE and worsen or extend thereafter (7). During SE, brain areas where most damage occurs are those with highest expression of Fos (marker of cellular hyperactivation), acid fuchsin staining (marker of dying neurons), and largest metabolic activation (8)(9)(10)). …”

“…Alternatively, the 1 h SE duration used in this study may not have been of sufficient duration to generate either superoxide or neuronal damage in these areas. Negligible neuronal damage occurs unless SE lasts at least 1 h in Li-pilo (Motte et al, 1998) or 40 min in pilocarpine seizures (Fujikawa, 1996;Lemos and Cavalheiro, 1995). The 1 h SE used in this study may not have been sufficient to induce significant superoxide production in all brain regions.…”

“…A 5 jiM section was taken every 150 jiM through the brain tissue 0.8 to 4.8 mm posterior to bregma. This area was chosen for the histopathological analysis for efficiency and because it contains critical brain nuclei that exhibit the greatest degree of damage fi-om soman (McDonough et al, 1998) and Li-pilo convulsions Motte et al, 1998;Fujikawa et al, 1999;Peredery et al, 2000). The sections were prepared with hematoxylin and eosin (H&E) staining and sent to the coinvestigator.…”
