Journal ArticleDOI
Injection of nerve growth factor into human masseter muscle evokes long-lasting mechanical allodynia and hyperalgesia.
TL;DR: This is the first study to show that injection of NGF into the human masseter muscle causes local signs of mechanical allodynia and hyperalgesia that persist for at least 7 days as well as pain during strenuous jaw movement.
Journal ArticleDOI
Activation of peripheral NMDA receptors contributes to human pain and rat afferent discharges evoked by injection of glutamate into the masseter muscle.
Brian E. Cairns,Peter Svensson,Kelun Wang,Steen Hupfeld,Thomas Graven-Nielsen,Barry J. Sessle,Charles B. Berde,Lars Arendt-Nielsen +7 more
TL;DR: Results indicate that injection of glutamate into the masseter muscle evokes afferent discharges in rats and muscle pain in humans in part through activation of peripheral NMDA receptors.
Journal ArticleDOI
Glutamate-evoked pain and mechanical allodynia in the human masseter muscle.
Peter Svensson,Peter Svensson,Peter Svensson,Brian E. Cairns,Kelun Wang,James W. Hu,Thomas Graven-Nielsen,Lars Arendt-Nielsen,Barry J. Sessle +8 more
TL;DR: The present results suggest that injection of 1.0 M glutamate into the masseter muscle may provide a useful experimental method to test sensitization and efficacy of peripheral EAA receptor antagonists in human subjects.
Journal ArticleDOI
One hour of tongue-task training is associated with plasticity in corticomotor control of the human tongue musculature
Peter Svensson,Antonietta Romaniello,Antonietta Romaniello,Kelun Wang,Lars Arendt-Nielsen,Barry J. Sessle +5 more
TL;DR: The present findings confirm that tongue task training is associated with plasticity of corticomotor excitability specifically related to the tongue musculature and further document that plasticity is evident within 30 min post-training and may last up to at least 7 days.
Journal ArticleDOI
The effects of intra-oral pain on motor cortex neuroplasticity associated with short-term novel tongue-protrusion training in humans.
Shellie Boudreau,Antoinella Romaniello,Kelun Wang,Peter Svensson,Peter Svensson,Barry J. Sessle,Lars Arendt-Nielsen +6 more
TL;DR: It is suggested that nociceptive input modulates MI neuroplasticity associated with novel motor training and may impair the ability to learn a new motor task.
