Purpose: This study aimed to determine whether serum-and glucocorticoid-inducible kinase1 (SGK1) activation-dependent histone deacetylase 4 (HDAC4) phosphorylation, nucleocytoplasmic trafficking, and subsequent regulation of high-mobility group protein box 1 (HMGB1) expression are involved in type 2 diabetic neuropathic pain (DNP).
Methods: The type 2 diabetic neuropathic pain model was established in rats by feeding them with a high-fat and high-sugar diet for 8 weeks and then fasting them for 12 h, followed by a single intraperitoneal injection of streptozotocin (STZ, 35 mg/kg). SGK1 was inhibited in the spinal cord by intrathecal administration of the SGK1 inhibitor GSK-650394.
Results: The present study revealed that pSGK1/tSGK1 was persistently upregulated in the spinal cord of rats with type-2 DNP. The downregulation of pSGK1/tSGK1 through the intrathecal injection of the SGK1 inhibitor GSK-650394 significantly ameliorated the pain hypersensitivity, relieved the abnormal expression of pHDAC4/tHDAC4 and HMGB1, and affected HDAC4 nucleocytoplasmic trafficking in DNP rats.
Conclusion: Our data suggest that SGK1 in the spinal cord modulates type-2 DNP by regulating the HDAC4/HMGB1 pathway.

Background: The importance of health literacy in personal health management is widely recognised in the general population, yet remains poorly understood in some patient groups, including people with spinal cord injury or disorder (SCI/D).
Objectives: The systematic review had two objectives: (1) to determine the health literacy levels of individuals with SCI/D, and (2) to identify facilitators and barriers to developing health literacy in this group.
Methods: Seven databases (CINAHL, Embase, Emcare, ProQuest, PsycINFO, PubMed, and Web of Science) were searched from inception, with an updated search completed on January 21, 2025.

The human brain is an intricate network of cortical regions interconnected by white matter pathways, dynamically supporting cognitive functions. While cortical asymmetries have been consistently reported, the asymmetry of white matter connections remains less explored. This chapter provides a brief overview of asymmetries observed at the cortical, subcortical, cytoarchitectural, and receptor levels before exploring the detailed connectional anatomy of the human brain.

Objectives: Sleep deprivation (SD) is a risk factor for the development of chronic pain in adolescents, significantly affecting pain management and prognosis; however, the mechanisms by which SD influences postoperative pain outcomes remain unclear. This study aims to investigate the molecular mechanism through which the spinal 5-hydroxytryptamine 1 receptor (5-HT1R) regulates the excitation/inhibition (E/I) balance in the dorsal horn to modulate postoperative chronic pain induced by SD in adolescent mice.
Methods: A pain model combining 4.

Chronic pain is a significant public health concern that diminishes patients' quality of life and imposes considerable socioeconomic costs. Effective pharmacological treatments for ongoing pain are limited. Recent studies have indicated that various models of chronic pain-such as neuropathic pain, inflammatory pain, and pain associated with cancer-have abnormal levels of long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs).
