Abstract: The present study examined contribution of the transient receptor potential vanilloid 1 channel (TRPV1) to the chronic orofacial pain. Bilateral partial nerve ligation (PNL) of the mental nerve, a branch of trigeminal nerve, was performed… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.neures.2018.06.003
Abstract: Although a modulatory role has been reported for α-lipoic acid (LA) on T-type Ca2+ channels in the nervous system, the acute effects of LA in vivo, particularly on nociceptive transmission in the trigeminal system, remain… read more here.

DOI: 10.1097/j.pain.0000000000001414
Abstract: Abstract Neuropathic pain represents a challenge to clinicians because it is resistant to commonly prescribed analgesics due to its largely unknown mechanisms. Here, we investigated a descending dopaminergic pathway–mediated modulation of trigeminal neuropathic pain. We… read more here.

DOI: 10.1097/j.pain.0000000000002114
Abstract: The mechanisms underlying headaches attributed to hypoxia are poorly known. The activation of spinal trigeminal neurons with meningeal afferent input is thought to be responsible for the generation of headaches.In the caudal spinal trigeminal nucleus… read more here.

DOI: 10.1111/jon.12425
Abstract: Pain information from the face enters the pons via the trigeminal nerve before creating an anatomical “elbow” that turns caudally into the spinal trigeminal tract (SpTV). Visualization of the descending tract of the trigeminal nerve… read more here.

Hydrogen Sulfide Mediating both Excitatory and Inhibitory Effects in a Rat Model of Meningeal Nociception and Headache Generation

DOI: 10.3389/fneur.2017.00336
Abstract: Background/purpose Hydrogen sulfide (H2S) is a neuromodulator acting through nitroxyl (HNO) when it reacts with nitric oxide (NO). HNO activates transient receptor potential channels of the ankyrin type 1 (TRPA1) causing release of calcitonin gene-related… read more here.
