Fig. 1.
Patterns of hippocampal epileptiform activity with increasing doses of PS. Each panel represents a continuous EEG recording from a ventral hippocampal electrode (contralateral to the injection cannula) during the first 30 min after the PS infusion was completed. (A) A 100 nM dose of PS produces isolated discharges followed by the long periods of relatively normal EEG. (B) Higher dose of PS (2 µmol) produces recurrent a pattern of closely spaced discharges with short periods of low amplitude epileptiform activity between paroxysms. (C) Infusion of a high doses of PS (4.0 µmol) resulted in continuous, high amplitude discharges with some variation in the frequency of epileptiform bursts.
