Changes in the Expression of c-fos and AQP4 in the Hippocampus and Amygdala Regions of Rats with Kainic Acid-Induced Temporal Lobe Epilepsy and Their Role in the Pathogenesis of Disease

open access: yesArchives of Epilepsy, 2022
Objective: Aquaporin4 is the main water channel in the brain that is associated with neurological disorders. The role and the expressive changes of aquaporin4 in epilepsy are still limited and controversial. The study aims to evaluate the expression of c-

Glutamic acid-insensitive [3H]kainic acid binding in goldfish brain [PDF]

open access: yes, 1992
Kainic acid is supposed to be a specific agonist for a subclass of excitatory glutamate receptors in the vertebrate CNS. An investigation of (2 nM) [3H]kainic acid binding sites in goldfish brain, using quantitative autoradiography, has revealed evidence

Systemic injection of kainic acid differently affects LTP magnitude depending on its epileptogenic efficiency. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2012
Seizures have profound impact on synaptic function and plasticity. While kainic acid is a popular method to induce seizures and to potentially affect synaptic plasticity, it can also produce physiological-like oscillations and trigger some forms of long ...

Surface Properties of Synaptosomes in the Presence of L-Glutamic and Kainic Acids: In Vitro Alteration of the ATPase and Acetylcholinesterase Activities

open access: yesMembranes, 2021
Morphologically and functionally identical to brain synapses, the nerve ending particles synaptosomes are biochemically derived membrane structures responsible for the transmission of neural information.

Modulation of kainic acid neurotoxicity in rats [PDF]

open access: yes, 1994
1. Systemically administered kainic acid causes a dose dependent increase in the amount of peripheral benzodiazepine receptor in the rat hippocampus, as assessed by [3H]PK11195 binding. 2. This increase in binding is due to an increase in Bmax and not K0.

A Practical Synthesis of (−)-Kainic Acid

open access: yes, 2016
A highly practical stereoselective total synthesis of (−)-kainic acid is described. This synthesis features the stereoselective alkylation of an iodolactone intermediate that was efficiently prepared from (+)-carvone and introduction of carboxylic acid ...

Action of adrenal and gonadal steroid hormones on kainic acid-evoked seizures in a rat model of epileptogenesis

open access: yesBiotechnology & Biotechnological Equipment, 2017
Epilepsy is one of most reported neurological disorders after migraine, stroke and Alzheimer's disease. Empiric clinical data reveal that seizures and epilepsy more likely affect men than women.

Inhibition of Gasdermin D-Mediated Pyroptosis Attenuates the Severity of Seizures and Astroglial Damage in Kainic Acid-Induced Epileptic Mice

open access: yesFrontiers in Pharmacology, 2022
Objective: Our study aimed to explore whether gasdermin D (GSDMD)-mediated pyroptosis is involved in the mechanism of kainic acid-induced seizures.Methods: C57BL/6 mice were randomly divided into sham and epilepsy groups.

Polarization anatomy of a kainic acid seizure [PDF]

open access: yesPsychiatry and Clinical Neurosciences, 1997
Abstract Slow voltage‐sensitive dyes work by accumulating in brain tissue and report the average membrane potential of neurons and glia. The voltage‐sensitive dye diO‐C2‐5 was used to monitor the polarization state of 27 brain structures in the rat during a systemically induced, behaviorally mild, kainic acid seizure using a 20 s recording period.

Anticonvulsant effects of antiaris toxicaria aqueous extract: investigation using animal models of temporal lobe epilepsy

open access: yesBMC Research Notes, 2017
Background Antiaris toxicaria has previously shown anticonvulsant activity in acute animal models of epilepsy. The aqueous extract (AAE) was further investigated for activity in kindling with pentylenetetrazole and administration of pilocarpine and ...
