}Patients with temporal lobe epilepsy often display cognitive comorbidity with recurrent seizures. However, the cellular mechanisms underlying the impairment of neuronal information processing remain poorly understood in temporal lobe epilepsy. Within the hippocampal formation neuronal networks undergo major reorganization, including the sprouting of mossy fibers in the dentate gyrus; they establish aberrant recurrent synapses between dentate granule cells and operate via postsynaptic kainate…

This chapter explains the concepts of pattern separation and how it was tested in the DG model, a conductance-based neural network model of the brain circuit thought to be involved in pattern separation during hippocampal memory acquisition: the dentate gyrus.
Position- and Time-Dependent Arc Expression Links Neuronal Activity to Synaptic Plasticity During Epileptogenesis
- BiologyFront. Cell. Neurosci.

During epileptogenesis epileptic activity emerges early and persists in the whole hippocampus, however, only the sclerotic part shows modulation of discharge amplitudes accompanied by plasticity of DGCs, identified as a putative mediator between seizure activity and synaptic plasticity.

Evidence is presented that in epilepsy, failed coordination leads not only to seizures but also to alterations of the rhythmical patterns observed in the electroencephalogram and cognitive deficits, and restoring the dynamic coordination of epileptic networks could improve seizures and cognitive outcomes.

Experimental data show that newly formed aberrant excitatory synapses on the granule cells of the fascia dentate operate by means of kainate receptor-operated signals that are not present on naivegranule cells, indicating that genuine epileptic networks rely on signaling cascades that differentiate them from naive networks.

It is reported that KARs are involved in ongoing glutamatergic transmission in granule cells from chronic epileptic but not control animals, and KAR-mediated EPSCKAs are selectively generated by recurrent mossy fiber inputs and have a slower kinetics than EPSCAMPA.

Stereological evidence of fewer GABAergic interneurons, fewer gephyrin-immunoreactive punctae, and reduced frequency of spontaneous IPSCs and miniature IPSCs confirmed that layer II stellate cell hyperexcitability is attributable, at least in part, to reduced inhibitory synaptic input.

Simulations suggest that the combined upregulation of Kir and HCN conductances attenuates excitatory synaptic input, while stabilizing the membrane potential and responsiveness, which helps granule cells homeostatically downscale their input-output transfer function during epilepsy.
