1. Induction of epilepsy[3]
Background
(-)-Bisculline methoromide can inhibit the synthesis and release of GABA, and weaken GABA's inhibition of neuronal activity in the SN reticular region (SNr), leading to epilepsy.
Specific Mmodeling Methods
Rat: Sprague-Dawley (SD) male or female 2 weeks old
Administration: 12.5, 25, 50 or 100 ng/0.25 μL inject into SN or corpus striatum through bilateral catheter implantation
Note
(1) Dissolve (-)-Bicuculine methoromide in distilled water and administer at a volume of 0.25 μL.
(2) Simultaneously administer bilateral infusions at a rate of 0.25 μ L/min, and after the infusion is completed, insert the catheter in situ for an additional minute to prevent drug reflux.
(3) Due to the short-lived effect of (-) - Bicuculine methoromide in SN, rats were tested 5 minutes after completing the infusion.
Modeling Indicators
Behavioral observation: Shortened the latency period of epileptic seizures, causing stereotyped behaviors such as excessive sniffing or licking, chewing movements, head twitching, and slow or occasional circling.
