However, the spatiotemporal evolution of this process and how it influences the subsequent<br />

progression of epilepsy is not yet understood. To address some of these questions we used<br />

pilocarpine-induced status epilepticus (SE) model of temporal lobe epilepsy and determined<br />

using unbiased stereological methods, vessel length changes and number of proliferating<br />

endothelial cells in the CA1 and CA3 subfields of the hippocampus and molecular layer of the<br />

hippocampus at 2 d post-SE (P
