Early-life seizures in rats increase susceptibility to seizure-induced brain injury in adulthood

Abstract: We concluded that early-life seizures, without causing overt cellular injury, predispose the brain to the damaging effect of seizures later in life.

“…Pour ce faire, nous avons émis les deux hypothèses suivantes : les convulsions fébriles prolongées surviennent chez des individus qui ont une prédisposition et l'épilepsie se manifeste chez les individus ayant une fragilité provenant d'une convulsion prolongée ; il s'agit du two-hit hypothesis qui avait été envisagé dans d'autres modèles chez l'animal immature [8].…”

“…Reduced capacity for long-term potentiation and impaired visual-spatial memory have been observed following prolonged seizures during the first 2 weeks of life [Lynch et al, 2000]. Koh et al [1999] studied the effects of status epilepticus in the second week of life on subsequent seizure-induced neuronal damage and behavior. Systemic kainic acid was used to induce seizures on P15 and again in adulthood, at P45.…”

“…Accumulating data from animal models of epilepsy suggest that early seizures can provoke structural and physiologic changes in developing neural circuits that result in permanent alterations in the balance between neuronal excitation and inhibition, deficits in cognitive function, and increased susceptibility to further seizures (44). In kainate-induced seizures in rats, even a single seizure early in life can make the brain more susceptible to seizure-induced injury later in life (45).…”
