Evaluation of Behavior, Learning, Memory Along with Apoptosis, Neuronal Damage, and GABA-A Alpha-1 Receptor Level After Status Epilepticus in Immature and Mature Rats
Abstract:Objective: In this study, we aimed to evaluate age-dependent cognitive and behavioral changes, neuronal damage, and the amount of gamma-aminobutyric acid-A (GABA-A) alpha 1 in immature, mature, and adolescant rats after status epilepticus (SE). Materials and Methods: SE was induced in immature (17 days), adolescant (45 days), and mature (150 days) rats using pentylenetetrazole (PTZ). After SE, adolescant and mature rats underwent open field test and Morris water maze test. After behavioral tests, the animals w… Show more
