Abbreviations: kainic acid = i.c.v. or systemic kainic acid; pilocarpine = pilocarpine or lithium/pilocarpine; PTZ = pentelenetetrazol; trauma = lesions, fluid percussive injury, or other models of trauma; ischemia = hypoxia or transient forebrain ischemia. Changes denoted reflect analysis of either the entire dentate gyrus (DG), granule cells (GC), mossy fibers (MF), hilar interneurons (INT), or hippocampus (HC). Inline graphic = increased relative to control; Inline graphic = decrease; —- = no change. Where no symbol is listed, data were unavailable. Information listed includes multiple methods (immunocytochemical, in situ hybridization, other) and different latencies after seizures. Inline graphic Inline graphic reflects that some studies described decreases at one latency after seizures and increases at a subsequent time. Data for enkephalin include studies that examined both met-enkephalin and those that did not specify. Dynorphin data include results for dynorphin A and B and were particularly variable over time and the dorsal-ventral axis of the hippocampus. TRH = thyrotropin-releasing hormone; CRF = corticotropin-releasing factor.
