Drop homotopic effects of masseter-muscle pain on somatosensory sensitivity in healthy participants

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2021
Current pain classifications use 1.0-kg palpation of the masseter muscle to distinguish between “pain patients” and “healthy controls” but a thorough understanding of the normal physiological responses to various somatosensory stimuli is lacking. The aim

A study of receptors in jaw muscles of the rat and other vertebrates [PDF]

open access: yes, 1989
The masseteric nerve supplying rat deep masseter muscle was traced from serial paraffin sections. The number of myelinated axons counted in a plastic transverse section close to its entrance into the muscle was 2120. Extrafusal muscle fibre counts of rat

Revisiting paravertebral muscles in European rabbits (Oryctolagus cuniculus) and European brown hares (Lepus europaeus) (Leporidae; Lagomorpha)

open access: yesThe Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Domesticated European rabbits (Oryctolagus cuniculus) have long been chosen as laboratory model organisms. Despite this, there has been no definitive study of the vertebral musculature of wild rabbits. Relevant descriptions of well‐studied veterinary model mammals (such as dogs) are generally applicable, but not appropriate for a species ...

Characteristics of muscle fibers reconstituted in the regeneration process of masseter muscle in an mdx mouse model of muscular dystrophy

open access: yes, 2006
Mdx mice, which lack dystrophin, were examined for changes in the properties of muscle fibers in the growth process of the masseter muscle at the morphological, protein and transcriptional levels. The slow-type isoform, MyHC-1, and the fast-type isoforms,

Multi‐method analysis for the three‐dimensional reconstruction of muscle fascicles from DiceCT datasets

open access: yesThe Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Muscle architecture is a major determinant of muscle performance and, in mammalian lineages, has been correlated with both feeding ecology and locomotor behaviors. Over the past decade, contrast‐enhanced micro‐CT (DiceCT) has emerged as an alternative to traditional dissection‐based measurement.

Human single masseter muscle fibers contain unique combinations of myosin and myosin binding protein C isoforms

open access: yes, 2002
Striated craniofacial and limb muscles differ in their embryological origin, regulatory program during myogenesis, and innervation. In an attempt to explore the effects of these differences on the striated muscle phenotype in humans, the expression of ...

Descriptive, comparative, and functional anatomy of the facial musculature in cattle (Bos taurus)

open access: yesThe Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Facial expressions can provide insight into animal emotions and pain, but no standardized system for assessing the entire facial display in cattle (Bos taurus Linnaeus) exists. The Facial Action Coding System (FACS), originally developed for humans, identifies distinct facial movements based on mimetic muscles.
