Variation of repetitive cortical spreading depression waves is related with relative refractory period: a computational study
Cortical spreading depression (CSD) is an important experimental model for diseases such as stroke, epilepsy and migraine. Previous observations indicated that the amplitude and velocity of the typical direct current potential shift during repetitive CSD waves were varying. The recovery state of the tissue was found related with the variation of successive CSD waves. A computational model in this paper aimed to investigate the role of relative refractory period of CSD. This model simulated that continuous injection of KCl solution induced repetitive CSD waves. The first CSD wave often had a larger amplitude and faster velocity than those of the succeeding secondary waves. The relative refractory period lasted much longer than the recovery of ions turbulence. If the induction interval was long enough for recovery, a series of CSD waves would have the same profile as the first one. In the relative refractory period, an early stimulation might lead to a late initiation of CSD, i.e., “haste makes waste”. The amplitude and velocity of CSD waves were found increasing with the initiation interval and asymptotic to those of the first CSD wave. This study verified that the propagation dynamics of CSD waves is modulated by the relative refractory period. It suggested that the refractory period is critical for preventing undesirable CSD waves.
