Alterations in the Neurobehavioral Phenotype and ZnT3/CB-D28k Expression in the Cerebral Cortex Following Lithium-Pilocarpine-Induced Status Epilepticus: the Ameliorative Effect of Leptin.

Abstract excerpt

Zinc transporter 3 (ZnT3)-dependent "zincergic" vesicular zinc accounts for approximately 20% of the total zinc content of the mammalian telencephalon. Elevated hippocampal ZnT3 expression is acknowledged to be associated with mossy fiber sprouting and cognitive deficits. However, no studies have compared the long-term neurobehavioral phenotype with the expression of ZnT3 in the cerebral cortex following status...
