As a result second stage of the project "Development of new antiepileptic compounds to inhibit hippocampal seizures" research was conducted on the role of thrombin and thrombin receptor in the development of chronic epilepsy due to status epilepticus. For the first time we show an increase in the level of expression of thrombin and protease-activated receptor 1 shortly after status epilepticus. Suppression of protease-activated receptor 1 reduced the status epilepticus-induced death of animals, reduce the level of neuronal cell death and the probability of occurrence of interictal spikes and spontaneous seizures. The obtained unique knowledge indicates that the protease-activated receptor 1 participates in epileptogenesis and the receptor may be a new promising target in "antiepileptogenic" therapy.
