Intranigral transplants of immortalized GABAergic cells decrease the expression of kainic acid-induced seizures in the rat.

Abstract:

:Repeated systemic administration of low doses of kainic acid (KA) induces spontaneous convulsive seizures [Hellier JL, Patrylo PR, Buckmaster PS, Dudek FE. Recurrent spontaneous motor seizures after repeated low-dose systemic treatment with kainate: assessment of a rat model of temporal lobe epilepsy. Epilepsy Res 1998;31:73-84]. In this study, male Sprague-Dawley animals received intranigral transplants of a control cell line M213-2O, or a cell line transfected with human GAD67 cDNA (M213-2O CL4) [Conejero-Goldberg C, Tornatore C, Abi-Saab W, Monaco MC, Dillon-Carter O, Vawter M, et al. Transduction of human GAD67 cDNA into immortalized striatal cell lines using an Epstein-Barr virus-based plasmid vector increases GABA content. Exp Neurol 2000;161:453-61], or no transplant. Eight weeks after transplantation surgery, KA was administered (5 mg/kg/h) until animals reached stage V seizures as described by Racine [Racine RJ. Modification of seizure activity by electrical stimulation. II. Motor seizure. Electroencephalogr Clin Neurophysiol 1972;32:281-94]. The group transplanted with CL4 required a larger dose of KA and a longer latency to reach a stage V seizure. In addition, this group exhibited significantly fewer stage III and IV seizures. These results indicate that intranigral transplants of a GABA-producing cell line can decrease the number of kainic acid-induced seizures.
