Abstract: Objective: To investigate the effect of epilepsy on expressions of cytochrome oxidase(COX) subnuits Ⅲ(COX Ⅲ) and Ⅳ (COX Ⅳ) encoded by mtDNA and nDNA in the rat hippocampus. Methods: Forty male Wistar rats were randomly divided into the saline control group, the acute period group (3h), the silent period group(7d), the chronic period group(45d) after status epilepticus(SE) and the group which received pilocarpine (PILO) but did not develop SE(n=8 per group). Expressions of COX Ⅲ and COX Ⅳ mRNA and protein in the rat hippocampus were respectively determined by real time quantitative PCR(RQ-PCR) and Western blot. Results: COX Ⅲ mRNA and protein were significantly increased in the group at 3h after SE(P<0.001, P<0.01) compared with the control group. Conclusion: Dysfunction of COX in the hippocampus is related to prolonged seizure during experimental temporal lobe epilepsy and the mitochondria are vulnerable to epilepsy.
