"More recent studies demonstrated that the reduced BK channel activity in DRG neurons after nerve injury is mediated by the increased BDNF through epigenetic and transcriptional mechanisms, and this BDNF-associated epigenetic regulation on pain is strongly related to the histone H3 and H4 acetylation at BDNF promoter I in the DRG that initiated at day 1 post-injury and lasted for 7 days [57]."

"In rats, nerve ligation (a model of peripheral nerve injury) increases brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF), which causes a reduction in both mRNA and expression of the BK channel in the DRG, leading to an increase in excitatory transmission (Scholz and Woolf, 2007; Furukawa et al., 2008)."
