Transient global brain ischemia causes delayed neuronal death in the hippocampus that has been associated with impairments in hippocampus‐dependent brain function, such as mood, learning, and memory. We investigated the expression of voltage‐dependent Kcnh1 and Kcnh5, ether à go‐go‐related Eag1 and Eag2 (KV10.1 and KV10.2), and small‐conductance calcium‐activated SK3 (KCa2.3, Kcnn3) K+ channels in the hippocampus in rats after transient global brain ischemia. We tested whether the expression of these channels is associated with behavioral changes by evaluating the animals in the elevated plus maze and step‐down inhibitory avoidance task. Seven or tweny‐eight days after transient global brain ischemia, one group of rats had the hippocampus bilaterally dissected, and mRNA levels were determined. Seven days after transient global brain ischemia, the rats exhibited a decrease in anxiety‐like behavior and memory impairments. An increase in anxiety levels was detected 28 days after ischemia. Eag2 mRNA downregulation was observed in the hippocampus 7 days after transient global brain ischemia, whereas Eag1 and SK3 mRNA expression remained unaltered. This is the first experimental evidence that transient global brain ischemia temporarily alters Eag2. The number of intact‐appearing pyramidal neurons was substantially decreased in CA1 and statistically measurable in CA2, CA3, and CA4 hippocampal subfields compared with sham control animals 7 or 28 days after ischemia. mRNA expression in the rat hippocampus. The present results provide further information for the characterization of the physiological role of Eag2 channels in the central nervous system. © 2011 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
