BACKGROUND: Oxidative stress is thought to be closely related to epileptogenesis. We have previously reported that nitric oxide (NO) levels are higher in epilepsy-prone EL mice between the ages of 3 and 8 weeks than in control mice. However, NO is divided into two fractions, nitrite (NO2) and nitrate (NO3), which appear to play different roles in epileptogenesis.
METHODS: NO2 and NO3 levels were measured, in EL mice and the control mice, in the parietal cortex, which is thought to be the primary epileptogenetic center in EL mice, and measured in the hippocampus, which is thought to be the secondary center.
RESULTS: NO3 levels in the hippocampus and parietal cortex of the immature EL mice (3 to 8 weeks of age) were significantly higher than those in the control mice; NO2 levels were significantly higher in the EL mice throughout the study period. The NO3 levels were significantly higher than the NO2 levels in the immature EL mice, but after the onset of ictogenesis at 10 weeks of age, the relative levels of the two fractions reversed.
CONCLUSION: The reversal of the NO fraction distribution at the onset of seizures that we observed may be related to the developmental process of seizure susceptibility in the neural network of EL mice.
