N SE, L06 SE and L30 SE, untreated control rats or rats injected with LPS on postnatal days 6 or 30, respectively, experiencing seizures induced with pilocarpine at the age of 2 months; Max SE, maximal seizure intensity showed by rats during the whole observation period; 6 h SUM SE, summarized rating scores of maximal seizure symptoms occurring in each of 10‐min periods during the whole 6 h observation time.

Decimal indexes show Pearson's coefficients of correlation combined with P‐indexes of their statistical significance, coefficients of statistically significant correlation are shown in bold, P‐values in the range 0.05–0.1 are enclosed in brackets. Statistically insignificant coefficients of correlation characterizing the control group (N SE) are shown in small characters.
