摘要
Neuronal death and dysfunction occur after status epilepticus (SE), and is associated with mitochondrial enzyme damage. We previously showed, using the rat perforant pathway stimulation model, that levetiracetam administration (LEV; 1000 mg/kg intraperitoneal) during established SE reduces seizure severity and prevents mitochondrial dysfunction. We now show that administration of the same dose of LEV after 5 h SE, does not protect from mitochondrial dysfunction. (c) 2006 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
