The aim of this study was to further validate our carrageenan-induced temporomandibular
joint (TMJ) inflammatory hyperalgesia model in rats by showing that administration of …

A considerable amount of evidence suggests that temporomandibular joint (TMJ) pain
associated with temporomandibular disorder results, at least in part, from an inflammatory …

Background Temporomandibular joint (TMJ) receives rich sympathetic innervations that may
contribute to TMJ pain through the local release of sympathomimetic amines. The aim of this …

The 5-hydroxytryptamine (serotonin, 5-HT) is an important inflammatory mediator found in
high levels in the synovial fluid of the temporomandibular joint (TMJ) of patients with …

Background β‐Blockers reduce temporomandibular joint (TMJ) pain. We asked whether they
also reduce TMJ inflammation and, if so, whether this anti‐inflammatory effect contributes to …

AIMS: The aim of this study was to investigate whether the injection of nerve growth factor
induces spontaneous nociceptive behavior in the intact or sensitized temporomandibular …

Response properties of nociceptors in the temporomandibular joint (TMJ) and surrounding
area under experimental inflammation were investigated using an in vitro TMJ-nerve …

The aim of this study was to determine whether peripheral N-methyl-d-aspartate (NMDA)
receptors are involved in inflammation-induced mechanical hypersensitivity of the …

Temporomandibular disorders represent one of the major challenges in dentistry
therapeutics. This study was undertaken to evaluate the time course of carrageenan …

A novel in vitro TMJ-nerve preparation was developed to quantitatively study peripheral
sensory mechanisms of temporomandibular joint (TMJ). The TMJ region on one side …
