Abstract

Background and Purpose: Application of LOW-FREQUENCY STIMULATION (LFS) induces anticonvulsant effects. In this study, the effect of changes in LFS frequencies on its anticonvulsant effects in kindling model of epilepsy was investigated by determining the behavioral and ultrastructural changes.Methods and Materials: In this experimental study, 45 Wistar rats weighing 250-280 g were used. For induction of kindled SEIZUREs, stimulating and recording electrodes were implanted in perforant path and DENTATE GYRUS respectively. Animals were stimulated in a rapid kindling manner. Different groups of animals received LFS at different frequencies (0.5, 1 and 5 Hz) following kindling stimulations and their effects on kindling rate were determined using behavioral and electrophysiological studies.After stimulating the animals for 7 days, they were killed and their dentate gyri were sampled for ultrastructural studies under electron microscopy. For data analysis, one-way and two-way ANOVA, LSD, Kruskal Wallis and Mann Whitney U were used in Statistica 2.Results: Different LFS frequencies had a significant inhibitory effect on kindling rate and decreased after-discharge duration and the number of stimulations to achieve stage 4 and 5 SEIZUREs significantly. In addition, application of LFS prevented the increase in the post-synaptic density and induction of concave synaptic vesicles following kindling. There was not any significant change between anticonvulsant effects of LFS at different frequencies.Conclusion: Obtained results show that LFS application can prevent the neuronal hyper-excitability by preventing the ultrastructural changes during kindling, and can exert its anticonvulsant effects.
