Kainic acid receptor (KAR) subunit expression in pilocarpine-treated rats. (A) Neuronal GluK4 KAR subunit expression in the CA1 region of control animals shows a similar pattern to that in the kainic acid (KA)-treated control group. (B) At 1 to 4 weeks following pilocarpine treatment (in addition to neuronal cell loss) there is GluK4 immunoreactivity in cells resembling astrocytes in the stratum radiatum of the hippocampus (black arrows). SP = stratum pyramidale; SR = stratum radiatum. Scale bar = 50 µm.
