The human colon: Evidence for degenerative changes during aging and the physiological consequences
Reduced nociceptor innervation can explain diminished abdominal pain among the elderly. Degenerative changes occur within the colon wall, especially ascending colon. Mechanisms may include senescence‐like activity and inflammaging. Constipation is more likely to occur during age‐related challenges affecting functions of the bowel that now have reduced ...

Evidence‐based review and frontiers of migraine therapy
Abstract Background Cyclic vomiting syndrome (CVS) is identified as one of the “episodic syndromes that may be associated with migraine,” along with benign paroxysmal torticollis, benign paroxysmal vertigo, and abdominal migraine. It has been proposed that CVS and migraine may share pathophysiologic mechanisms of hypothalamic activation and altered ...

ABSTRACT Background Cyclic vomiting syndrome (CVS) is defined by its episodic patterning. Furthermore, CVS is associated with other episodic disorders such as migraine and epilepsy. Indeed, many of the medications that are known to be useful for prophylaxis and abortive therapy in CVS are also effective in preventing and aborting migraines and seizures.

Sex‐specific alterations in intestinal neuronal‐epithelial interactions between calcitonin gene related peptide (CGRP) and goblet cells secondary to elevated enteric alpha synuclein (aSyn) potentially contribute to gastrointestinal dysfunction in Parkinson's Disease (PD). ABSTRACT Background Parkinson's Disease (PD) is a neurodegenerative disorder with

The pathophysiology of functional dyspepsia and irritable bowel syndrome includes altered motility, secretion, sensitivity to sensory signals, impaired epithelial barrier function, inflammation, and gut dysbiosis. The phytomedicine, STW 5‐II, represents a multi‐targeted approach, addressing these pathophysiologies.

Contribution of Sympathetic Sensory Coupling to Craniofacial Nociception
ABSTRACT Stress and anxiety are associated with increased pain intensity in temporomandibular disorders (TMDs) patients. It is possible that this association is due to a direct interaction between the sympathetic and sensory nervous systems. This narrative review examines evidence for a potential sympathetic sensory interaction in deep craniofacial ...

Abstract Evidence reports positive effects of neck motor control and aerobic exercises (AEs) to improve pain in individuals with temporomandibular disorders (TMD) and neck pain. A single bout of exercise typically leads to an increase in pain thresholds up to 30 min post‐exercise, known as exercise‐induced hypoalgesia (EIH).

Abstract figure legend The incretin system in obesity. The incretin hormones glucose‐dependent insulinotropic polypeptide (GIP) (yellow) and glucagon‐like peptide‐1 (GLP‐1) (blue) are produced by the proximal and distal small intestinal epithelium, where they are released postprandially into the bloodstream to modulate a myriad of physiological and ...

Abstract figure legend Transient receptor potential ankyrin 1 (TRPA1) and melastatin 3 (TRPM3) activation regulate pre‐ and postsynaptic Ca2+ concentrations and synaptic activity in the dorsal horn of the spinal cord. Left: a model that describes how activation of TRPA1 and TRPM3 channels induces an influx of Ca2+ in the central terminals of sensory ...
