The mechanisms of interictal discharges (IID) were studied under the conditions of the 4-aminopyridine model of spontaneous epileptiform activity in surviving rat brain slice preparations. Addition of the agents blocking GABA and NMDA receptors failed to inhibit IID generation in the entorhinal cortex. A mathematical model of IID has been developed on the basis of the excitatory neuron interaction mediated by the AMPA receptor. Short-term synaptic depression and slow afterspike-hyperpolarization are the key factors required to terminate a single IID. The IID shape-determining factors have been identified. The experimental and model IID features correspond to each other. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
