The Correlations Between the Mechanical Properties of Masticatory Muscles and Cranio-Cervical Posture

open access: yesReabilitacijos Mokslai: Slauga, Kineziterapija, Ergoterapija
Background and Aim. Upper crossed syndrome (UCS) is associated with prolonged static posture, muscular imbalance, and postural dysfunction. Altered activation of cervical and scapular stabilising muscles may increase tension in the masticatory muscles ...

Local anesthetics inhibit Ca-ATPase in masticatory muscles [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Local anesthetics have myotoxic effects and inhibit Ca-ATPase activity and Ca transport in skeletal muscles. Such effects have not been fully elucidated in masticatory muscles.

Realization of Masticatory Movement by 3-Dimensional Simulation of the Temporomandibular Joint and the Masticatory Muscles

open access: yes, 2013
Masticatory muscles are closely involved in mastication, pronunciation, and swallowing, and it is therefore important to study the specific functions and dynamics of the mandibular and masticatory muscles.

Mastication‐Induced Electrical Stimulation Activates Prg4+ Chondroprogenitors for Osteoarthritis Therapy

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
This study presents a ″trash‐to‐treasure″ strategy that converts harmful joint overloads into beneficial electrical cues. The biodegradable MagPie, by providing piezoelectrical stimulation and releasing Mg2+ during mastication, exerts synergistic pro‐regenerative and anti‐inflammatory effects on Prg4+ cells via the ECM‐mediated FAK‐PI3K‐Akt axis ...

Preservation of masseter muscle until the end stage in the SOD1G93A mouse model for ALS

open access: yesScientific Reports
Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) progressively impairs motor neurons, leading to muscle weakness and loss of voluntary muscle control. This study compared the effects of SOD1 mutation on masticatory and limb muscles from disease onset to death in ALS ...

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

m.10010T>C Mitochondrial Disease: A Case Report With Hypoparathyroidism and Review of the Literature

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Medical Genetics Part A, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Mitochondria are essential intracellular organelles that play a critical role in cellular metabolism, including the regulation of intracellular calcium signaling. Advances in genomic sequencing have facilitated the identification of rare pathogenic mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) genetic variants in patients with unexplained endocrine disorders.

Finite element analysis of feeding in red and gray squirrels (Sciurus vulgaris and Sciurus carolinensis)

open access: yesThe Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Invasive gray squirrels (Sciurus carolinensis) have replaced the native red squirrel (Sciurus vulgaris) across much of Great Britain over the last century. Several factors have been proposed to underlie this replacement, but here we investigated the potential for dietary competition in which gray squirrels have better feeding performance than ...

Efficiency of Electromyographic Examination in Dental Patients with Signs of Bruxism to Determine the Functional State of the Muscles of the Maxillofacial Region

open access: yesДоклады Белорусского государственного университета информатики и радиоэлектроники
The bioelectrical activity of the masticatory and temporal muscles at rest and under voluntary ten  sion in patients with clinical signs of bruxism was assessed.

Afferent and cortical control of human masticatory muscles

open access: yes, 2002
Like most other muscles, the human masticatory muscles are controlled by descending signals from the cortex and other supraspinal structures, as well as afferent signals arising in receptors in muscles, skin and other tissues.
