[Effect of electroacupuncture on epileptic EEG and intracellular Ca2+ content in the hippocampus in epilepsy rats].

Objective: To study the underlying mechanism of electroacupuncture (EA) in relieving epilepsy in pentylenetetrazole (PTZ)-induced epilepsy rats.

Methods: Twenty SD rats were randomly divided into normal control, model, EA, Nimodipine groups, with 5 cases in each. Epilepsy model was established by intraperitoneal injection of PTZ (32.
