In this study, we investigated the gene expression of proinflammatory cytokines IL-1β (Il1b) and IL-6 (Il6), and anti-inflammatory fractalkine (Cx3cl1) in the hippocampus, entorhinal cortex, and neocortex of rats at different time points after lithium-pilocarpine status epilepticus (SE). This evidence concerns the gene IL1B and status epilepticus.
