Article Synopsis
- The study examined how spreading depression (SD) spreads differently across various cortical regions in rats, focusing on the frontal, parietal, and cingulate cortex.
- Researchers used a 4 x 4 electrode array and magnetoencephalography to track the patterns of ion movements and brain activity initiated by applying a potassium chloride solution.
- Results showed that SD began in the lateral cortex and then moved to medial areas, with faster propagation rates in the medial regions, highlighting that the spreading patterns are not uniform across the cortex.
