Abstract

Patients suffering from trigeminal neuralgia (TN) are often accompanied by anxiety and depression. Microglia-mediated neuroinflammation is involved in the development of neuropathic pain and anxiodepression pathogenesis. Whether and how microglia are involved in TN-induced anxiodepression remains unclear.
