Abstrakt:	Background/aims: Status epilepticus (SE) might be followed by temporal lobe epilepsy (TLE), a common neurologic disorder characterized by spontaneous recurrent seizures (SRSs). However, the relationship between SE and TLE is still incompletely characterized. For this reason, in a model of TLE we evaluated the lesion extent and the onset of SRSs to determine if they were influenced by the SE dynamics. Methods: Sixty-two adult male Sprague-Dawley rats were implanted for video-electrocorticographic (v-ECoG) monitoring and intraperitoneally treated with saline or kainic acid (KA, 15 mg/kg) at 8 weeks of age. v-ECoG recordings were obtained during SE, in the following 9 weeks, and assessed by amplitude or power band spectrum. Rats were euthanized 3 or 64 days after SE to evaluate the lesion. Results: SE lasted about 10 h during which the mean duration of convulsive seizures (CSs) increased from 39 s, at 30 min, to 603 s at 4 h. The gamma power peaked 30 min after the SE onset and its peak was correlated (r²=0.13, p=0.042) with the overall SE duration. Subsequently, the gamma power was reduced under the baseline until the end of SE. The theta power increased at approximately 150% of basal levels 3 h after KA injection, but it went back to basal levels with the full development of CSs. Interestingly, the timing of the first SRS in chronic epilepsy was correlated with the latency to develop the first CS with loss of posture during SE (r²=0.60, p<0.001). Additionally, the overall duration of CSs observed during SE was related to the number of damaged brain regions (r²=0.60, p=0.005), but it did not influence the timing of the first SRS in chronic epilepsy. Conclusion: Overall, our results show that the onset of chronic epilepsy is modulated by SE dynamics, whereas brain damage is related to prolonged convulsions in SE.
