Interrelation between pregnancy and epilepsy is one of the pressing problems of current neurology. Those mechanisms, which suppress or amplify the seizure reactions in pregnancy, have not been yet determined experimentally. The goal of present work was investigation of impact of gestation and the postpartum period on initiation and development of convulsive reactions in the experimental animal model. Epileptic reactions were significantly suppressed during gestation (2 and 3 weeks). The data showed changes in behavioral reactions and EEG seizure activity. In the period of gestation the development of audiogenic kindling in response to repetitive acoustic stimulation is markedly reduced. This indicates the strengthening of inhibitory processes in the brain. It is supposed that in the period of gestation in rats with genetically determined audiogenic seizures excess of sexual hormones and enhancement of GABA-ergic transmission causes marked reduction of development of audiogenic kindling. |
