Fig. 9: Cartoon showing the mechanism by which the SERBP1-PCIF1 complex in S1HLGlu neurons contributes to the development and maintenance of neuropathic pain and comorbid anxiety.

Peripheral nerve injury induces an increase in the SERBP1-PCIF1 complex, which in turn regulates m6Am-controlled MAF1 expression in S1HL, leading to reduced inhibition and enhanced neuronal excitability (drawn by figdraw.com).
