Afterdischarge Thresholds and Kindling Rates in Dorsal and Ventral Hippocampus and Dentate Gyrus
Abstract
Electrodes were implanted to dorsal hippocampus (CA1), ventral CA1, DOrsal dentate gyrus or ventral dentate gyrus. Epileptiform afterdischarge (AD) thresholds were lower in dorsal areas than in ventral areas. Dorsal areas, however, required a greater number of stimulations to develop ("kindle") a fully generalized convulsion than did ventral areas. Thresholds and kindling rates in the dentate gyrus were intermediate between dorsal and ventral …
