The number of rats from which high quality RNA was obtained is shown for each condition tested. Control in the case of kindling is sham stimulation. Abbreviations: RD, DC etc on the ‘Lab’, ‘Process’ or ‘Analysis’ rows are initials of the responsible authors; CON—control rats that had been injected with vehicle (pilocarpine and kainate models), or implanted but not stimulated (SSSE and kindling models); SE 1 day—rats sacrificed 1 day after experiencing status epilepticus (SE); K stage 2—rats undergoing kindling that were sacrificed 24 h after the first Stage 2 seizure. SSSE—self-sustained status epilepticus, produced by continuous electrical stimulation of the angular bundle.
