May 2026 in “The Journal of Headache and Pain” The study introduces an improved FLIT-B model for trigeminal neuralgia (TN) in mice, which involves compressing the trigeminal nerve root using glass beads. This model successfully replicates key clinical features of TN, including spontaneous pain-like behaviors and anxiety-like symptoms. The research highlights the anterior cingulate cortex (ACC) as a critical area of structural and functional plasticity, linking chronic trigeminal pain to affective disturbances. The study found that inhibiting excitatory neurons in the ACC significantly reduced both pain-like and anxiety-like behaviors, suggesting potential therapeutic targets for TN-related affective disorders.
