Changes in hippocampal GABAA/cBZR density during limbic epileptogenesis: Relationship to cell loss and mossy fibre sprouting

►An increase in GABAA/cBZR density was observed in the hippocampus 24 h post-SE ►There was a decrease in CA3c neurons at 24 h and 6 weeks post-SE ►An increase in GABAA/cBZR expression per neuron was found at 24 h ►Mossy fibre sprouting increased with time post-SE
