    Article Snippet: Chronic pain with mood disorder, resulting from a peripheral nerve injury, is a serious clinical problem affecting the quality of life.. A lack of brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) and abnormal intercellular signaling in the brain can mediate this symptom.. BDNF is induced in cultured neurons by 4-methylcatechol (4-MC), but little is known about its role in pain–emotion.

    Alleviating the severity of MCAO‐R‐induced seizures by blocking the BDNF/TrkB signaling and suppressing microglial activation. (A) Representative traces demonstrate the effective suppression of epileptiform burst firing induced by OGD/R in cultured hippocampal neurons by K252a. (B–D) Bar graphs present quantitative analysis, indicating that blocking the BDNF/TrkB signaling pathway with K252a significantly reduces the percentage of neurons exhibiting epileptiform bursting firing (B), the bursting frequency (C), and the total number of APs during 10 min (D) compared to control neurons (Control: N = 18 cells, OGD/R: N = 24 cells; FUR+OGD/R: N = 11 cells, all from N = 3 cultures). (E, F) Pretreatment with K252a or minocycline significantly decreases the occurrence of Racine IV‐V seizures at 40 mg/kg (E) and 50 mg/kg (F) cumulative PTZ dose. The distribution of seizure scores among mice is represented by the R2, R3, R4, and R5. (G‐H) Line charts reveal that K252a or minocycline reduced the percentage of MCAO‐R mice with Racine IV‐V seizures (G) and the average seizure score (H) at a cumulative PTZ dose of 40 and 50 mg/kg. (I) The cumulative PTZ dose required to induce epileptic behaviors with a Racine IV‐V is increased by blocking the BDNF/TrkB signaling pathway and suppressing microglial activation (Sham: N = 10, MCAO‐R: N = 13, MCAO‐ R + K252a: N = 11, MCAO‐R + Mino: N = 10). (J) Simplified schematic summarizing that MCAO‐R induces microglial activation (↑Iba1) and BDNF release, leading to TrkB activation, KCC2 downregulation, a depolarizing shift in E GABA and increased seizure risk, whereas minocycline and K252a act upstream at microglia and TrkB, respectively, to ameliorate this cascade. * p < 0.05 and ** p < 0.01 compared to the Sham group; # p < 0.05 and ## p < 0.01 compared to the MCAO‐R group.
