Abstract：
:Spreading depression (SD), a self-propagating wave of reversible cellular depolarization, is thought to play an important role in brain pathophysiology. SD and seizures are closely related events but little is known about involvement of SD in chronic epileptogenesis. Here we show that cortical SD is the first and highly reproducible manifestation of audiogenic kindling induced by repeated sound stimulation of WAG/Rij rats with genetic audiogenic and absence epilepsy. Repetition of sound-induced running seizures in freely moving rats led to an appearance and gradual intensification of post-running facial and forelimb clonic convulsions coupled with afterdischarge in the fronto-parietal cortex. Before the development of these traditional manifestations of audiogenic kindling, an unilateral cortical SD wave began to be triggered by audiogenic seizures. Once cortical SD appeared, it became a permanent component of subsequent seizures. SD was always recorded in the hemisphere ipsilateral to the running direction. Only at the late stages of audiogenic kindling SD developed bilaterally. To estimate the contribution of SD in postictal effects of audiogenic seizures, we compared cortical activity after seizures induced SD or not. It was found that only seizures with cortical SD were followed by postictal suppression of spontaneous spike-wave discharges displayed by WAG/Rij rats. The results show that (1) cortical SD is readily triggered by brief sensory-induced seizures in awake animals; (2) SD may be responsible for postictal changes in cortical activity; (3) unilateral initiation of SD suggests asymmetrical recruitment of the cortex into seizure network during audiogenic kindling.
