Trigeminal nerve fibers in the nasal cavity respond to a variety of volatile chemical stimuli. Some of these trigeminal nerve fibers have been suggested to be capsaicin-sensitive and thus belong to a class of pain receptor rather than constituting a separate class of chemoreceptor. Our current
It was reported in a recent study that, like capsaicin, menthol is capable of producing a desensitization to sensory irritation in the oral cavity. Whereas capsaicin is known to be able to cross-desensitize with other chemical irritants, no such information exists for menthol. To address this
This study aimed to determine perceptual response differences and characterize desensitization to capsaicin over time across several oral cavity mucosae- the tongue, cheek, hard palate, and lip. For each region, subjects rated the intensity of capsaicin and a vehicle control over a 10-minute period.
Capsaicin causes a burning or spicy sensation when this vanilloid compound comes in contact with trigeminal neurons of the tongue. This compound has low solubility in water, which presents difficulties in examining the psychophysical properties of capsaicin by standard aqueous chemosensory tests.
It was recently discovered that capsaicin desensitization of the tongue can be temporarily reversed during recurrent stimulation ("stimulus-induced recovery," SIR). The effects of concentration and the temporal pattern of stimulation on desensitization and SIR were studied in four experiments. In
OBJECTIVE
Sensory hyperreactivity (SHR) with predominantly airway symptoms is a subgroup of chemical intolerance to various environmental substances with pungent/odorous properties. The hallmark of SHR is sensitivity to capsaicin inhalation, resulting in extensive coughing likely to be mediated by a
BACKGROUND
The unique innervation and anatomic features of dental pulp contribute to the remarkable finding that any physical stimulation of pulpal tissue is painful. Furthermore, when pathological processes such as caries affect teeth and produce inflammation of the pulp, the pain experienced can
Non-selective transient receptor potential vanilloid (TRPV) cation channels are activated by various insults, including exposure to heat, acidity, and the compound capsaicin, resulting in sensations of pain in the skin, visceral organs, and oral cavity. Recently, TRPV1 activation was also
The aim of this study was to evaluate the influence of five intranasal applications of capsaicin, performed after endoscopic polypectomy associated with partial middle turbinectomy and anterior ethmoidectomy, on the recurrence of nasal polyps and the intensity of nasal obstruction and rhinorrhea.
The present study was initiated to investigate the effects of hypertonic saline (15%) or low pH (1 M lactic acid, pH 2) applied to the human nasal mucosa. Patients suffering from birch-pollen allergy, which had been de-sensitized with capsaicin, were compared to non-treated, healthy controls. Five
We examined the serial changes of intravenously applied dye leakage and preliminary examined histamine release into nasal lavage fluid after topical stimulation with capsaicin in guinea pigs. A significant increase in the dye leakage response was detected for 30-40 min, with the maximum response
Nasal cavity volume, mucosal and superficial skin blood flow as well as renal splenic vascular effects of capsaicin, resiniferatoxin and lactic acid were investigated, using a novel in vivo pig model. The present results show that locally intraarterially injected capsaicin, resiniferatoxin and
In burning mouth patients, analgesia after oral administration of clonazepam may result from modulation of peripheral γ-aminobutyric acid (GABA) receptors.
The effect of oral administration of test solutions (water, 0.5 mol/L or 0.05 mol/L GABA, 1% lidocaine) was investigated for the amelioration of
Potassium ion-containing solutions have been shown to initially excite then depress intradental nerve activity (INA) when applied into deep dentinal cavities. The INA reflects activity originating in intradental A fibers. Application of KCl to deep dentinal cavities also induces an increase in
Many of the physiological hallmarks associated with neurogenic inflammatory processes in cutaneous tissues are similarly present within orofacial structures. Such attributes include the dependence upon capsaicin-sensitive sensory neurons and the involvement of certain inflammatory mediators derived
