Physical exercise and fitness programs in patients with epilepsy are still a matter of
controversy. Effects of physical exercise in animals with epilepsy have been demonstrated.
To further investigate the possible mechanisms by which physical activity interferes with
epileptogenesis, the present work was aimed to study the effect of aerobic exercise on “in
vitro” hippocampal electrophysiological parameters observed in rats submitted to the
pilocarpine model of epilepsy. Electrophysiological changes were monitored by extracellular …
