However, the clinical therapeutic strategies for PSD-induced postoperative hyperalgesia are limited. Electroacupuncture (EA) has been used for attenuating many types of pain, including neuropathic pain and inflammatory pain, but its effect on PSD-induced postoperative hyperalgesia is still unclear, and its analgesia mechanism should be further explored. In this study, we designed to investigate the possible mechanism of PSD-induced postoperative hyperalgesia and the effect of EA on PSD-induced postoperative hyperalgesia, and whether the mechanism is related to the BDNF/TrkB signaling pathway mediated by α7nAChR in the spinal cord. The paw withdrawal thermal latency (PWTL) and paw withdrawal mechanical threshold (PWMT) of rats were used to detect PSD-induced hyperalgesia. The expression of α7nAChR, BDNF, TrkB and KCC2 in the spinal cord were evaluated by Western blot and immunofluorescence. The results showed that preoperative 24 h PSD significantly decreased the PWTL and PWMT. The expression of α7nAChR and KCC2 significantly downregulated in the spinal cord of PSD-induced postoperative hyperalgesia rats, the opposite was observed for BDNF and TrkB expression. Moreover, intrathecal injection of alpha-bungarotoxin (α-BGT), a selective antagonist for α7nAChR, not only aggravated the pain hypersensitivity, but also demonstrated a further decrease of α7nAChR and KCC2 expression and a further increase of BDNF and TrkB expression. EA stimulation increased the PWTL and PWMT values of PSD-induced postoperative hyperalgesia rats, significantly upregulated α7nAChR and KCC2 expression, and significantly downregulated BDNF and TrkB expression. Moreover, intrathecal injection of α-BGT suppressed the analgesic effect of EA, inhibited the enhancement of α7nAChR and KCC2 expression and the reduction of BDNF and TrkB expression induced by EA. In conclusion, our study indicated that 24 h PSD can cause postoperative hyperalgesia, and the mechanism may be related to the disorder of α7nAChR mediated BDNF/TrkB-KCC2 signaling pathway. EA can alleviate postoperative hyperalgesia induced by PSD, which may be related to its effect in activating α7nAChR, inhibiting the expression of BDNF/TrkB, and up-regulating the expression of KCC2 in the spinal cord.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":13195,"journal":{"name":"IBRO Neuroscience Reports","volume":"17 ","pages":"Pages 389-397"},"PeriodicalIF":2.0,"publicationDate":"2024-10-24","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142578537","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The purpose of this study was to determine the effect of ethanolic and aqueous extracts of <em>Lantana camara</em> on the kainate model of epilepsy in mice.

In addition, increase in GABA and GSH levels, and a decrease in MDA levels were observed in these groups. Hematoxylin-eosin staining revealed less pronounced neuronal degeneration and a more sustained architecture in the brain region of extract-treated mice.

By experimenting with DL models on EEG data, we aimed to enhance psychiatric disorder diagnosis, offering promising implications for medical advancements. We utilized a dataset of 945 individuals, including 850 patients and 95 healthy subjects, focusing on six main and nine specific disorders. Quantitative EEG data were analyzed during resting states, featuring power spectral density (PSD) and functional connectivity (FC) across various frequency bands. Employing artificial neural networks (ANN), K nearest neighbors (KNN), Long short-term memory (LSTM), bidirectional Long short-term memory (Bi LSTM), and a hybrid CNN-LSTM model, we performed binary classification. Remarkably, all proposed models outperformed previous approaches, with the ANN achieving 96.83 % accuracy for obsessive-compulsive disorder using entire band features. CNN-LSTM attained the same accuracy for adjustment disorder, while KNN and LSTM achieved 98.94 % accuracy for acute stress disorder using specific feature sets. Notably, KNN and Bi-LSTM models reached 97.88 % accuracy for predicting obsessive-compulsive disorder. These findings underscore the potential of EEG as a cost-effective and accessible diagnostic tool for psychiatric disorders, complementing traditional methods like MRI. Our study's advanced DL models show promise in enhancing psychiatric disorder detection and monitoring, with significant implications for clinical application, inspiring hope for improved patient care and outcomes. The potential of EEG as a diagnostic tool for psychiatric disorders is substantial, as it can lead to improved patient care and outcomes in the field of psychiatry.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":13195,"journal":{"name":"IBRO Neuroscience Reports","volume":"17 ","pages":"Pages 300-310"},"PeriodicalIF":2.0,"publicationDate":"2024-09-24","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142357688","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
