PURPOSE: The mechanism of the inhibitory effect of histamine on amygdaloid-kindled seizures was investigated in rats.
METHODS: Under pentobarbital anesthesia, rats were fixed to a stereotaxic apparatus, and bipolar electrodes were implanted into the right amygdala. A guide cannula made of stainless steel tubing was implanted into the right lateral ventricle. Electrodes were connected to a miniature receptacle, which was embedded in the skull with dental cement. EEG was recorded with an electroencephalograph; stimulation of the amygdala was applied bipolarly every day by a constant-current stimulator and continued until a generalized convulsion was obtained.
RESULTS: Intracerebroventricular (i.c.v.) injection of histamine at doses of 2-10 microg resulted in a dose-related inhibition of amygdaloid-kindled seizures. I.c.v. injection of calcium chloride at doses of 10-50 microg and A23187 at doses of 2-10 microg also caused dose-dependent inhibition of amygdaloid-kindled seizures. Calcium chloride at a dose of 10 microg, which showed no significant effect on amygdaloid-kindled seizures when used alone, significantly potentiated the effect of histamine. Similar findings were observed with A23187 at a dose of 2 microg. In addition, EGTA and EGTA/AM antagonized the inhibition of kindled seizures induced by histamine. Moreover, the inhibition of kindled seizures induced by histamine was antagonized by KN62. However, calphostin C did not antagonize the inhibitory effect of histamine.
CONCLUSIONS: These results indicated that histamine-induced inhibition of amygdaloid-kindled seizures may be closely associated with a calcium calmodulin-dependent protein kinase II activation pathway.
