Popis: We have evidence that methamphetamine (METH)-induced neuronal death is morphologically necrotic, not apoptotic, as is currently believed, and that electrographic seizures may be responsible. We administered 40 mg/kg i.p. to 12 male C57BL/6 mice and monitored EEGs continuously and rectal temperatures every 15 min, keeping rectal temperatures
