Zhejiang da Xue Xue Bao. Yi Xue Ban = Journal of Zhejiang University. Medical Sciences 2015 September
OBJECTIVE: To investigate the antiepileptic effects of various stimulation modes of low-frequency stimulation(LFS) on the kindling rats.
METHODS: Stimulating electrodes were implanted in the amygdala and current with constant intensity was applied to evoke kindling-induced seizures. The antiepileptic effect of LFS by open loop stimulation(before kindling), closed loop stimulation(immediately after kindling) and different forms of closed loop stimulation(whole stage after kindling and early stage after kindling) were investigated in amygdala kindled rats.
RESULTS: The closed loop LFS of whole stage after kindling can significantly inhibited seizure stages(P<0.01) and reduced afterdischarge duration(P<0.05). The closed loop LFS of early stage after kindling can significantly suppress the seizure stages, mainly in stages 0-3(P<0.05 or P<0.01). The open loop low-frequency stimulation did not inhibit the seizure stage during kindling acquisition(P>0.05).
CONCLUSION: The antiepileptic effect of low frequency stimulation may have a mode-dependent effect. It may be helpful for the deep brain stimulation as a promising approach applied to clinical antiepileptic therapy in the future.
