Research Abstract |
Four models of trigeminal nerve injury were tested for mechanical threshold on whisker pad. The mechanical allodynia was induced in all “infraorbital nerve ligation model” rats, but in only the half of “inferior alveolar nerve transaction model” rats. Therefore, another half of “inferior alveolar nerve transaction model” rat did not develop the mechanical allodynia. However, neither alterations of gene expression in trigeminal ganglion that indicate the nerve injury, nor microglial activation in the medullary dorsal horn that thought to be closely related to the pathogenic mechanism of allodynia, had a correlation with the occurrence of allodynia.
