T-type calcium channel and Kir 4.1 potassium channel gene expression in thalamic reticular nucleus and somatosensory cortex of WAG/Rij rat strain

T-type calcium channel and Kir 4.1 potassium channel gene expression in thalamic reticular nucleus and somatosensory cortex of WAG/Rij rat strain

WAG/Rij rat strain is inherited model of human childhood absence epilepsy. Genetic mechanisms of seizures are unknown but it was shown that reticular thalamic nucleus (RTn) and somatosensory cortex (’cortical focus’) are involved in appearing of spike-wave discharges (SWD) origin. T-type calcium cha...
