Mossy fiber synaptic reorganization in the epileptic human temporal lobe.

TL;DR: The results are morphological evidence of mossy Fiber synaptic reorganization in the temporal lobe of epileptic humans, and suggest the intriguing possibility that mossy fiber sprouting and synaptic reorganizing induced by repeated partial complex seizures may play a role in human epilepsy.
Journal ArticleDOI

Synaptic reorganization in the hippocampus induced by abnormal functional activity.

TL;DR: In this paper, morphological evidence was provided that synchronous perforant path activation and kindling of limbic pathways induce axonal growth and synaptic reorganization in the hippocampus, in the absence of overt morphological damage.
Journal ArticleDOI

Mossy fiber synaptic reorganization induced by kindling: Time course of development, progression, and permanence

TL;DR: A strong correlation between mossy fiber synaptic reorganization and the development, progression, and permanence of the kindling phenomenon is demonstrated.
Journal ArticleDOI

Neuronal loss induced in limbic pathways by kindling: evidence for induction of hippocampal sclerosis by repeated brief seizures

TL;DR: It is suggested that hippocampal sclerosis may be acquired in human epilepsy as a consequence of repeated seizures because of selective vulnerability of hippocampal neuronal populations to seizure-induced injury, and even brief seizures may induce excitotoxic injury in vulnerable neuronal populations.
