Objective To explore the effect of ? - aminobutyric acid B receptor(GABABR)on brain damage induced by recurrent febrile seizures (FS). Methods Rats were randomly divided into four groups: control group (37. 0 ℃ water, n = 8), FS group (45.2 ℃ water,n=8), FS + baclofen group (45.2 ℃ water,77 = 8), FS + phaclofen group (45. 2 ℃ water,n=8). FS in rats were induced for ten times in a bath of warm water, once every 2 days. The intensity, latency and duration of the seizure in rats were recorded. The expression of c - fos gene and Fos protein were examined by in situ hybridization and immunohistochemistry, respectively. Results Compared with those of FS group, the seizure latency gradually prolonged, and the seizure duration was shortened in FS + baclofen group. In FS+ phaclofen group, the seizure latency was shorter and the seizure duration was longer than those of FS group. The seizure intensity was lessened in FS + baclofen group while aggravated in FS + phaclofen group compared with that of FS group. The expression of c - fos gene and Fos protein increased significantly after recurrent FS. Baclofen down regulated the expression of c -fos gene and Fos protein, while phaclofen enhanced the expression of them. Conclusion The study by using the agonist and the inhibitor of GABABR showed that GABABR might play a crucial role in the development of FS- induced brain damage.

Objective To explore the effect of nitric oxide (NO) on ?-aminobutyric acid B receptor (GABA_BR) subunits during recurrent febrile seizures (FS).Methods Twenty-four Sprague-Dawley rats aged 21 days were randomly divided into 4 groups: control group (37.0 ℃ water,n=8), FS group (45.2 ℃ water,n=8), FS + SNP group (45.2 ℃ water,n=8), FS+L-NMMA group (45.2 ℃ water,n=8). FS rats were induced 10 times in a warm-water bath, once every 2 days. The plasma level of NO was detected by the spectrophotometer. The expressions of GABA_BR subunit mRNA and c-fos gene were examined by in situ hybridization. The expressions of GABA_BR subunit and Fos protein were observed by immunohistochemistry. Results The plasma level of NO increased in FS + SNP group while decreased in FS+L-NMMA group compared with that in FS group. The expressions of GABA_BR_2 were down-regulated in FS+SNP group, while GABA_BR_1 hardly changed compared with those in FS group. In FS+L-NMMA group, both the expression of GABA_BR_2 and GABA_BR_1 up regulated compared with those in FS group. The expressions of c-fos gene and Fos protein were significantly enhanced after recurrent FS. SNP elevated the expressions of c-fos gene and Fos protein, while L-NMMA down regulated the expressions of them.Conclusion NO may play a regulatory role through modulating GABA_BR function in the pathogenesis of recurrent FS.
