Abstract:
Objective To investigate the changes of cannabinoid 2 receptor(CB2R) expression at different time after epileptic status in epileptic childhood rats. Methods Healthy male SD rats (18-21 days old) were randomly divided into two groups:control group and epileptic model group. CB2R concentration in hippocampus of rats were tested at 2 h,24 h,14 d,21 d after entering the status epilepticus( status epilepsy, SE) by immunohistochemistry,PCR,Western blot. Results In control group,CB2R content of the hippo-campus brain gradually increased with age increasing. When the rats with the age of 35-42 days,CB2R con-tent gradually got stabilized. After status epilepticus for 2 h-14 d,CB2R content of hippocampus in epileptic model group was more than that in the control group. At the point of 21 d,CB2R content of hippocampus in the control group was more than that in epileptic model group. CB2R mRNA of epileptic model group at 2 hours point was more than that of control group (2. 062 vs 1. 878,P<0. 05). At 24 h and 14 d after SE,there were significant differences between two groups in CB2R mRNA respectively ( P <0. 05, respectively). At 21 d after SE,CB2R mRNA of control group was more than that of epileptic group (6. 018 vs 5. 938),but there was no significant difference between two groups (P >0.05). Conclusion CB2R presents high expression in childhood rat hippocampus suffering from status epilepticus, reaches a peak following with prolonged seizures,then gradually decreased.
