2017, Archives of Oral BiologyCitation Excerpt :The trigeminal nerve, which provides sensory innervation of the TMJ and associated masticatory structures, is responsible for transmitting nociceptive signals from the peripheral tissues to the upper spinal cord (Imbe et al., 2001; Shankland, 2000). While the cell bodies of trigeminal sensory neurons are located in the trigeminal ganglion, these neurons extend fibers to peripheral tissues in the head and face and extend fibers that project centrally and synapse with second order neurons in the spinal trigeminal nucleus (Cairns, Sessle, & Hu, 2001; Nishimori et al., 1986; Shigenaga et al., 1988). Within the trigeminal ganglion, the neuronal cell body is surrounded by satellite glial cells that modulate the excitability state of trigeminal ganglion neurons (Durham & Garrett, 2010; Thalakoti et al., 2007).
Somatotopic direct projections from orofacial areas of secondary somatosensory cortex to trigeminal sensory nuclear complex in rats
2012, NeuroscienceCitation Excerpt :In addition, the present study also showed that the intertrigeminal and juxtatrigeminal regions receive a small number of axon terminals from the orofacial S2. Both these regions have been shown to receive projections from the trigeminal primary afferents arising from the trigeminal ganglion neurons (Olsson et al., 1986; Westberg et al., 1998; Westberg and Olsson, 1991; Inoue et al., 2002) and the trigeminal mesencephalic neurons which innervate periodontal tissues or muscle spindles of the jaw-closing muscles (Nishimori et al., 1986; Shigenaga et al., 1986b, 1988, 1989a, 1990; Marfurt and Rajchert, 1991; Dessem and Luo, 1999; Luo et al., 2001) and to project to the thalamus in the rat (Jones and Yang, 1985; Luo and Dessem, 1995) which projects to S2. Therefore, it is highly likely that the orofacial S2 may also provide feedback projections to neurons in the ipsilateral TSNC and contralateral intertrigeminal and juxtatrigeminal regions.
Somatotopic direct projections from orofacial areas of primary somatosensory cortex to pons and medulla, especially to trigeminal sensory nuclear complex, in rats
2012, NeuroscienceCitation Excerpt :The present study also showed that the supratrigeminal nucleus received axon terminals from the ling-S1 and ment-S1 areas, and the juxtatrigeminal region received terminals from the ling-S1, r-inf.orb-S1 and front-S1 areas. The supratrigeminal nucleus and the juxtatrigeminal region are known to receive no projections of trigeminal primary afferents, but do receive projections of the trigeminal mesencephalic neurons which innervate periodontal tissues or muscle spindles of the jaw-closing muscles (Nishimori et al., 1986; Shigenaga et al., 1986b,1988a, 1989a,1990a; Marfurt and Rajchert, 1991; Dessem and Luo, 1999; Luo et al., 2001). Since it has been reported that the supratrigeminal nucleus and juxtatrigeminal region project to the rat thalamus (Jones and Yang, 1985; Luo and Dessem, 1995) which projects to S1, it is possible that the orofacial S1 may provide feedback to neurons in the supratrigeminal nucleus and juxtatrigeminal region.
