Outline of Final Research Achievements |
In the present study, we produced maternal separated rats (MSR) which were limited nursing time in infancy. The pain sensation in orofacial area of MSR was altered. The concentration of cotricosterone in serum of MSR was significantly higher. The expression of P2X3 receptors in trigeminal ganglion of MSR was significantly increased. The alteration of pain sensation in orofacial area and the increased expression of P2X3 receptors was induced in the rats which administrated corticosterone in infancy. These results suggested that the extraordinary pain induced by stress in infancy was attributed to increase of P2X3 receptors in peripheral nerve.
