Figure Legend Snippet: Sleep deprivation induces anxiety-like behaviors through IL-6-driven astrocyte-GABAergic neuron crosstalk in the PAG-ACC circuit. Sleep deprivation (SD) increased IL-6 systemically and in periaqueductal gray (PAG). Elevated IL‑6 induced morphological activation of PAG astrocytes, characterized by increased branch number and length, and enhanced astrocytic calcium activity. Activated astrocytes subsequently released more glutamate, which stimulated postsynaptic NMDA receptors on PAG neurons, induced upregulation of mesencephalic astrocyte‑derived neurotrophic factor (Manf). Increased Manf in turn reduced the expression of the GABA A receptor α1 subunit (Gabra1), thereby disinhibiting GABAergic neurons in the PAG and enhancing GABAergic transmission from the PAG to the anterior cingulate cortex (ACC). This SD-induced circuit-level dysregulation ultimately contributed to anxiety-like behaviors
