Expression of brain-derived neurotrophic factor and structural plasticity in the dentate gyrus and CA2 region correlate with epileptiform activity.

Our study reveals differential molecular plasticity changes in granule cells and CA2 PCs despite many similarities (epileptiform activity, somatic mossy fiber input, dispersion). These findings contribute to the understanding of common as well as individual characteristics of the cell populations underlying the epileptic hippocampal network.
