Schwann cells and trigeminal neuralgia
Schwann cells are components of the peripheral nerve myelin sheath, which supports and nourishes axons. Upon injury of the trigeminal nerve, Schwann cells are activated and cause trigeminal neuralgia by engulfing the myelin sheath and secreting various ...

ABSTRACT Objective Trigeminal trophic syndrome (TTS) is a rare condition caused by trigeminal nerve injury, classically characterized by anaesthesia, paresthesia and facial ulceration. We present two cases of TTS successfully managed with regional nerve blocks and onabotulinumtoxinA. Methods Two patients—a 54‐year‐old woman and a 65‐year‐old man—with a

Abstract Background Trigeminal‐mediated headshaking (TMHS) in horses shares clinical features with human trigeminal neuralgia (HTN). Increased levels of the neuropeptide calcitonin gene‐related peptide (CGRP) have been found in the blood and cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) of HTN patients. Inhibition of CGRP in humans has shown promise for pain relief.
