The mechanisms underlying seizure-induced changes in gene
expression are unclear. Using a chromatin immunoprecipitation assay, we
found that acetylation of histone H4 in rat hippocampal CA3 neurons was
reduced at the glutamate receptor 2 (GluR2; GRIA2) glutamate
receptor promoter but increased at brain-derived neurotrophic factor
promoter P2 as soon as 3 hr after induction of status epilepticus by
pilocarpine. This result indicates that status epilepticus rapidly
activates different signal pathways to modulate histone acetylation in
a promoter-specific manner. H4 deacetylation preceded seizure-induced
GluR2 mRNA downregulation. The histone deacetylase inhibitor
trichostatin A prevented and quickly reversed deacetylation of
GluR2-associated histones. Trichostatin A also blunted seizure-induced downregulation of GluR2 mRNA in CA3. Thus, rapid gene-specific changes
in histone acetylation patterns may be a key early step in the
pathological processes triggered by status epilepticus.
