A. The experimental timeline is shown. Animals were treated with ethosuximide and 20 mg/kg KA. IIS were analyzed during the 4–21 hrs after KA. Sample sizes are as follows: GFAP-TK−: n = 8; GFAP-TK+: n = 7.
B. Representative examples of IIS from a sham-treated (1) and X-irradiated (2) mouse. For 1–2, the trace to the right shows an IIS at higher temporal resolution. Qualitatively, IIS were similar. 3. There was a higher IIS frequency in X-irradiated mice compared to sham-treated mice at all the time points tested.
C. 1–2. Representative examples of records from a X-irradiated and a sham-treated mouse at similar delays (approximately 7.5 hrs) after KA.
3. There were significantly more X-irradiated mice that exhibited delayed seizures compared to sham-treated mice. The mean number of seizures per mouse was greater in X-irradiated mice also.
