Overexpression of GluR6 in Rat Hippocampus Produces Seizures and Spontaneous Nonsynaptic Bursting in Vitro

We hypothesized that overexpression of specific glutamate receptors within the hippocampus would induce seizures and the associated cellular changes seen in temporal lobe epilepsy (TLE). The GluR6 kainate receptor was overexpressed by injecting rat hippocampi with HSVGluR6, a viral vector transducin...
