Does monocyte chemoattractant protein-1 affect migration of hippocampal neural progenitors following status epilepticus in rats?
An increase in dentate MCP-1 is associated with seizure-induced aberrant migration of neuronal progenitors through the interaction with CCR2. The upregulation of MCP-1 after an insult of SE may play a role in the generation of epilepsy.
These results indicate that nutrient provisioning does not provide a resolution to sexual conflict over female receptivity in this bushcricket species.
