Mechanical-Chemical Coupling in Temporomandibular Joint Disc

SSRN Electronic Journal, 2019
This paper reports an experimental investigation based on vibrational spectroscopy of biological materials by a new custom-made device allowing simultaneously applying tensile load with changes within a controlled chemical environment. The response of the molecular structures of Temporomandibular Joint (TMJ) discs under simulated daily mechanical ...

Tensile Characterization of Porcine Temporomandibular Joint Disc Attachments [PDF]

Journal of Dental Research, 2013
The frequency and impact of temporomandibular joint (TMJ) disorders necessitate research in characterizing the joint’s function. The 6 discal attachments have not yet been systematically characterized under tension. Understanding their role in joint function may guide our study of TMJ pathologies, including disc displacement.

Multi-class segmentation of temporomandibular joint using ensemble deep learning

Scientific Reports
Temporomandibular joint disorders are prevalent causes of orofacial discomfort. Diagnosis predominantly relies on assessing the configuration and positions of temporomandibular joint components in magnetic resonance images.

Mesenchymal Stem Cell‐Derived Apoptotic Micro‐Vesicles Repaired Sciatic Nerve Defect by Regulating Early Inflammatory Microenvironment and Promoting Angiogenesis

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
HUCMSC‐Apo‐mvs enhance peripheral nerve repair by modulating the inflammatory microenvironment (IME), primarily through coordinated actions on three functional cells. They recruit macrophages and promote their polarization from pro‐inflammatory M1 to anti‐inflammatory M2 phenotypes, increasing secretion of IL‐10 and VEGF.

Mechanical Overloading‐Induced Nanomineral Crystal Perturbation from the Osteochondral Interface: A Potential Initiator of Osteoarthritis

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Laser‐induced graphene (LIG) provides a scalable, laser‐direct‐written route to porous graphene architecture with tunable chemistry and defect density. Through heterojunction engineering, catalytic functionalization, and intrinsic self‐heating, LIG achieves highly sensitive and selective detection of NOX, NH3, H2, and humidity, supporting next ...

Assessment of occlusal appliance in repositioning of the temporomandibular joint anterior disc displacement with reduction: a 3 to 36 months follow-up

Alʹmanah Kliničeskoj Mediciny, 2017
Rationale: Occlusal appliance is one of methods for temporomandibular joint anterior disc displacement with reduction (ADDWR). However, most studies have focused on the symptom reliefs rather than the disc-condyle positional relationship.

Osteoclast‐Derived SLIT3 Mediates Osteoarthritis Pain and Degenerative Changes

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
In TMJ‐OA, osteoclasts play a significant role in promoting the growth of sensory nerves at the osteochondral interface. In early OA, TRAP+ osteoclast‐derived SLIT3 induces sensory nerve growth into the condylar cartilage. This nerve growth facilitates the development of pain associated with OA.
