摘要: Abstract The aim of this study was to determine the neuronal participation nitric oxide (NO) in experimental epilepsy. To reach objective, we established amount cells presenting synthase (NOS) and amygdaline concentrations l -arginine–nitric synthesis pathway. A group fully epileptic rats, induced by kindling procedure that had reached at least 10 generalized seizures, studied. We evaluated behavioral stages, electroencephalographic activities, histochemical NOS-positive carried out high-pressure liquid chromatography (HPLC) determinations arginine, citrulline, glutamic acid. Our results showed electrographic frequency, duration were increased during process. Image processing system NOS two types intensities cell stains hippocampus, caudate-putamen, amygdala. When independently counted stain cells, a selective increase number density weak-stained observed, while dark-stained did not change studied structures. Additionally, acid amygdala kindled animals. differential specific stained expressing synthase, as well pathway amygdala, suggested relationship with progressive augmentation electrophysiological hyperactivity characteristic
