Immunoreactivity for phospho-AKT in the CA1, CA3, and dentate gyrus in an epilepsy model induced by pilocarpine administration.

Hippocampal formation	Control (saline)	Acute (5H)	Silent (5D)	Chronic (60D)
CA1	+	+	+++	++
CA3	++	+	+++	+
Dentate gyrus	+	+	+++	++

Staining of phospho-AKT was scored by two independent observers as follows: +: low; ++: moderate; +++: high intensity based on photomicrographs presented in Figure 3. Control: saline-treated rats; acute: 5 hours after status epilepticus (SE); silent: 5 days after SE; chronic: 60 days after SE.
