| 英文摘要 | Deep brain stimulation (DBS) has been used to treat a variety of neurological disorders including epilepsy. However, we have limited knowledge about effective target areas, optimal stimulation parameters, and long-term effect of DBS on epileptic seizures. Here we examined the effects of DBS of the substantia nigra pars reticulata (SNr) on amygdala-kindled seizures. Microwire electrodes were implanted into the SNr and amygdala of adult male rats. When stage 5-kindled seizures were achieved by daily amygdala kindling, high frequency stimulation was delivered to the SNr bilaterally 1 s after cessation of kindling. Our DBS protocol completely blocked kindled seizures in 10 out of 23 (43.5%) rats studied. Furthermore, when the same amygdala kindling procedure was performed 24 h later without DBS, the kindling failed to elicit any seizure signs in 6 of these 10 rats. Some of the post-DBS period of seizure suppression lasted for up to 4 days. In other 3 rats, only mild stage 1 to 2 seizures appeared following amygdala kindling. Only I of the 10 rats for which DBS had blocked kindled seizures exhibited full-scale 5 stage-kindled seizures 24 h after DBS. These results suggest that highly plastic neural networks are involved in amygdala-kindled seizures and that DBS, if well timed with the onset of amygdala kindling, may exert long lasting effects on the networks that may prevent the recurrence of kindled seizures.; Deep brain stimulation (DBS) has been used to treat a variety of neurological disorders including epilepsy.
