Reduced masticatory function is related to lower satellite cell numbers in masseter muscle [PDF]
, 2017 The physiology of masseter muscles is known to change in response to functional demands, but the effect on the satellite cell (SC) population is not known.

Masticatory muscles and the skull: A comparative perspective [PDF]
Archives of Oral Biology, 2007 Masticatory muscles are anatomically and functionally complex in all mammals, but relative sizes, orientation of action lines, and fascial subdivisions vary greatly among different species in association with their particular patterns of occlusion and jaw movement. The most common contraction pattern for moving the jaw laterally involves a force couple

Equine Veterinary Journal, EarlyView.Abstract Botulism is a severe and often fatal disease in equine patients worldwide. Clostridium botulinum is a ubiquitous soil organism which produces a potent neurotoxin resulting in neuromuscular blockade and flaccid paralysis in affected animals. Definitive diagnosis is often impractical or impossible, leading to diagnosis and treatment based on ...

Research into the physiology of myosins - a personal odyssey
European Journal of Translational MyologyDuring my PhD, I worked on the neural regulation of mechanical properties fast and slow muscles. This led me to believe that myosins in fast and slow muscles are structurally distinct and that motor nerves regulate the expression of myosin genes.

Pseudomalignant myositis ossificans involving multiple masticatory muscles: Imaging evaluation
Indian Journal of Radiology and Imaging, 2014 Myositis ossificans is a rare cause of trismus. We present a case of pseudomalignant myositis ossificans involving medial pterygoid, lateral pterygoid, and temporalis muscles. Patient presented with gross limitation in mouth opening. There was no history

Gerodontology, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Objective This systematic review and meta‐analysis evaluated the relationship between nutritional status and the oral health of older adults (aged 75 years or older). The PECO focus question was, ‘What is the occurrence, association and impact of nutritional state on the oral health outcomes and its management in older adults?’ Methods A ...

Ontogenetic and functional modularity in the rodent mandible [PDF]
, 2017 The material properties of diets consumed by juvenile individuals are known to affect adult morphological outcomes. However, much of the current experimental knowledge regarding dietary effects on masticatory form is derived from studies in which ...

International Journal of Dental Hygiene, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Objective This study aimed to associate the number of present teeth and pairs of natural teeth with obesity in older adults (≥ 60 years old). Methods This study used a probabilistic and representative sample from two southern Brazilian cities (Cruz Alta and Veranópolis). Data collection took place at the participants' households.
