C57BL/6J mice exposed to eight flurothyl‐induced generalized clonic seizures exhibit a change in seizure phenotype following a 28‐day incubation period and subsequent flurothyl rechallenge. Mice now develop a complex seizure semiology originating in the forebrain and propagating into the brainstem seizure network (a forebrain→brainstem seizure). In contrast, this phenotype change does not occur in seizure‐sensitive DBA/2J mice. The underlying mechanism was the focus of this study.
