Kainic acid, an analogue of glutamate, injected systemically to rats evokes seizures that are accompanied by nerve cell damage primarily in the limbic system. In the present study, we have analyzed the temporal profile of the expression of the cytokines interleukin-1␤ (IL-1␤) and IL-1 receptor antag
