Abstract
Fits of audiogenic seizures in rodents are considered as a model for generalized convulsive epilepsies in humans. The laminar distribution of the H3 histamine receptor binding densities was quantified in the motor cortex of two strains of rats with genetically determined generalized epilepsies, namely KM rats with audiogenic seizures only, and WAGRij rats with both audiogenic seizures and absence seizures. It was found that H3 histamine receptor binding densities in layer 2/3d of the primary and secondary motor cortices of the rats that experienced audiogenic seizure fits were significantly lower than in the cortices of control rats. Possible explanations are discussed.
