We investigated the contribution of peripheral 5-HT2A or 5-HT3 receptors to Fos expression
in the trigeminal spinal nucleus (VSP) following acute masseter muscle injury in male rats …

The role of peripheral 5HT3 receptors in the orofacial nocifensive behavior induced by the
injection of formalin into masseter muscle was evaluated. The behavioral activities evoked …

The role of peripheral serotonin (5HT) 2A and 5HT1A receptors on the orofacial nocifensive
behavioral activities evoked by the injection of formalin into the masseter muscle was …

In this study, we examined the contribution of N-methyl-d-aspartate (NMDA) receptors on c-
fos expression in the trigeminal brainstem nuclei following acute muscle inflammation …

Repeated forced swim (FS) conditioning enhances nociceptive responses to
temporomandibular joint (TMJ) stimulation in female rats. The basis for FS-induced TMJ …

Acute injury to the temporomandibular joint (TMJ) region activates neurons in multiple, but
spatially discrete, areas of the trigeminal spinal nucleus as seen by an increase in Fos-like …

Patients suffering with functional somatic pain syndromes such as temporomandibular
disorders (TMD) and fibromyalgia syndrome (FMS) have some similar symptoms, but the …

We examined the anatomical connections of trigeminal neurons between the trigeminal
subnuclei interpolaris/caudalis (Vi/Vc) transition and caudal subnucleus caudalis/upper …

We assessed the contribution of central 5HT2A receptors to the craniofacial tissue
nociception in naïve male rats. First, we tested whether activation of central 5HT2A receptors …

To understand the functional significance of orofacial injury‐induced neuronal activation,
this study examined the rostral projection of caudal brainstem neurons that were activated …
