Effect of a miR-124 mimics and inhibitor on rat seizure behavioural activities. (a) Fluorescent image showing positive expression of the miR-124 mimics and miR-124 inhibitor in the DG of the hippocampus. The blue arrow indicates a granule cell; Scale bar, 100 µm. (b) miR-124 levels in the hippocampus 72 h after intrahippocampal injection of the miR-124 mimics (0.2/0.6/1.0 nm) and mimics control (1.0 nm). *P < 0.05, compared with the control, n = 3 in each group. (c) Effect of intrahippocampal injection of the miR-124 mimics (0.2/0.6/1.0 nm) and mimics control (1.0 nm) on the percentage of rats with generalised tonic–clonic seizures (GTCS) in pilocarpine-induced seizure rat models. *P < 0.05, compared with the control, n = 8 in each group. (d) Effect of intrahippocampal miR-124 mimics (0.2/0.6/1.0 nm) and mimics control (1.0 nm) injection on the latency of seizures in pilocarpine-induced rat models. *P < 0.05, compared with the control, n = 8 in each group. (e) Effect of intrahippocampal miR-124 mimics (1.0 nm) and mimics control (1.0 nm). injection on the percentage of rats with generalised tonic–clonic seizures (GTCS) in PTZ-induced seizure rat models. *P < 0.05, compared with the control, n = 8 in each group. (f) Effect of intrahippocampal miR-124 mimics (1.0 nm) and mimics control (1.0 nm) injection on the latency of seizures in PTZ-induced seizure rat models. *P < 0.05, compared with the control, n = 8 in each group. (g) miR-124 levels in the hippocampus 72 h after intrahippocampal injection of the miR-124 inhibitor (4.0 nm) and inhibitor control (4.0 nm). *P < 0.05, compared with the control, n = 5 in each group. (h) No statistically considerable differences was found between the percentage of rats with GTCS in control, inhibitor control and inhibitor groups. n = 8 in each group. (i) Effect of intrahippocampal miR-124 inhibitor (4.0 nm) and inhibitor control (4.0 nm) injection on the latency of seizures in pilocarpine-induced rat models. *P < 0.05, compared with the control, n = 8 in each group.
