Specific inhibition of p38α MAPK dampens neuroinflammation during acute alcohol withdrawal in mouse BV2 microglial cell line and rat organotypic hippocampal slice cultures
• Elevated CXCL1 during ethanol withdrawal in BV2 cells was abolished by MW150 • Increased TNFα during ethanol withdrawal in OHSCs was reduced by MW150 • MW150 may be effective in treating neuroinflammation during ethanol withdrawal
