## Changes in the brain protein levels following administration of kainic acid Kainic acid (KA), a potent neurotoxin and excitatory amino acid, leads to derangements and modulation of brain proteins. No global brain protein expression pattern induced by KA-treatment has been reported yet. We there

## Abstract We present T2βweighted and diffusionβweighted images of kainic acid lesions in the rat brain. Our observations show improved image contrast between edematous lesions and unaffected tissue using diffusionβweighted imaging. Furthermore, we show that the anisotropic intensity changes assoc
Seizure activity induced by kainic acid (KA) and subsequent neuronal death are thought to be associated with an increase in cytoplasmic free calcium ([Ca2+li) and can be prevented by N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA) antagonists. In addition to influx through receptor operated Ca2+ channels the increase i
