Calpain has been proposed to play a critical role in the development of epilepsy. Here we used conditional calpain-2 knock-out (C2CKO) mice in a C57/Bl6 background and a selective calpain-2 inhibitor to analyze the role of calpain-2 in epilepsy. Neurodegeneration was evident in various hippocampal subfields, in particular in mossy cells in the hilus of the dentate gyrus (DG) in C57/Bl6 mice 7 days after kainic acid (KA)-induced seizures. Calpain-2 activation was still observed in mossy cells 7 days after seizures. Calpain activation,
