dc.description.abstract | Mesial temporal lobe epilepsy is a serious brain disorder in adults that is often preceded by an initial brain insult, such as status epilepticus (SE), that after a latent period leads to recurrent seizures. Post SE models are widely used for studies on epileptogenic processes. Previous findings of our laboratory suggested that the Neotropical rodents Proechimys exhibit endogenous antiepileptogenic mechanisms in post-SE models. Strong body of research supports that SE triggers a rapid and dramatic upregulation of inflammatory mediators and vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF). In this work we found that, in the epilepsy-resistant Proechimys, hippocampal and cortical levels of inflammatory cytokines (1L-1 beta, 1L-6, IL-10, TNF-alpha) and VEGF remained unchanged 24 h after SE, strongly contrasting to the high levels of post-SE changes observed in Wistar rats. Furthermore, substantial differences in the brain baseline levels of these proteins were encountered between animal species studied. Since inflammatory cytokines and VEGF have been recognized as major orchestrators of the epileptogenic process, our results suggest their role in the antiepileptogenic mechanisms previously described in Proechimys.
