1 C. Neuronal activity of cortical and thalamic neurons becomes synchronized during a primary generalized seizure. The depolarization is dependent on conductances in AMPA-type glutamate receptor-channels and T-type voltage-gated Ca2+ channels. The repolarization is caused by GABA-mediated inhibition as well as voltage- and calcium-dependent K+ conductances (g K). (Reproduced, with permission, from Lothman 1993a.)
