C-Fos: A Neural Activity Marker For Craniofacial Pain Research, Weera Supronsinchai, Robin James Storer 2015 Chulalongkorn University

C-Fos: A Neural Activity Marker For Craniofacial Pain Research, Weera Supronsinchai, Robin James Storer

Chulalongkorn University Dental Journal

It is well known that pain in animal models is difficult to measure. c-Fos, the protein product of the cellular immediate-early proto-oncogene gene, c-fos, can be activated in neuronal cells by noxious sensory stimuli including chemical irritation, mechanical, thermal, and electrical stimulation. The expression of c-Fos provides researchers with a tool by which the processing of somatosensory information, particularly nociception, from the craniofacial regions can be better understood. c-Fos is widely used as an indirect marker of neuronal activation after noxious stimulation in dental pain research, including in the trigeminal nervous system as activated by craniofacial or orofacial stimulation. Anatomical …


Chemokine Function In Periodontal Disease And Oral Cavity Cancer, Sinem Esra Sahingur, W. Andrew Yeudall 2015 Virginia Commonwealth University

Chemokine Function In Periodontal Disease And Oral Cavity Cancer, Sinem Esra Sahingur, W. Andrew Yeudall

Periodontics Publications

The chemotactic cytokines, or chemokines, comprise a superfamily of polypeptides with a wide range of activities that include recruitment of immune cells to sites of infection and inflammation, as well as stimulation of cell proliferation. As such, they function as antimicrobial molecules and play a central role in host defenses against pathogen challenge. However, their ability to recruit leukocytes and potentiate or prolong the inflammatory response may have profound implications for the progression of oral diseases such as chronic periodontitis, where tissue destruction may be widespread. Moreover, it is increasingly recognized that chronic inflammation is a key component of tumor …

Chulalongkorn University Dental Journal

Objective The present study aimed to investigate the influence of mechanical stress on Notch signaling component expression by human deciduous dental pulp cells. Materials and Methods Cells were isolated from human deciduous teeth. The mechanical stress was applied to cell culture using a computerized cell compressive force loading apparatus. Cell viability was evaluated using MTT assay. The mRNA expression of selected Notch signaling components was determined using quantitative real-time PCR. Results A computerized cell compressive mechanical stress did not influence cell viability. After mechanical stress treatment for 2 h, the NOTCH1, JAG1, and HEY1 mRNA levels were upregulated. However, the …
