Injections of a retrograde tracer, Fluorogold (FG), and an anterograde tracer, biotinylated dextranamine (BDA), were made in anaesthetized rats. We found three kinds of brainstem areas which mainly include premotoneurons for jawopening (JO) component of the Vmo (JO premotoneurons) (e.g., reticular formation medial to the JO component [RmJO]), premotoneurons for jaw-closing (JC) component of the Vmo (JC premotoneurons) (e.g., intertrigeminal region [Vint]) and the both (e.g., trigeminal oral nucleus [Vo] and juxtatrigeminal region [Vjuxt]). These premotoneuron areas received topographic direct projections from the cerebral cortex. The RmJO and Vint received projections mainly from the medial agranular field (Agm) and lateral agranular field (Agl) of the cortex, respectively, while the Vo and Vjuxt received projections mainly from the primary somatosensory cortex (S1). The distribution of JO and JC premotoneurons receiving contact(s) from S1 neurons were also examined quantitatively; they were found mainly in the Vjuxt and Vo. The present study suggests that the cortical disynaptic projections to the JO and JC components of the Vmo are consisted of several projections from the sensorimotor cortex through JO and JC premotoneurons in the brainstem and that these projections play a role in producing distinctive patterns of jaw-movements. 10 An effective way eliciting swallowing by electrical stimulation in man K. Yamamura, M. Kurose, M. Rahman, H. Zakir, Y. Yamada. Niigata University Graduate School of Medical and Dental Sciences, Japan Objectives: Although there is considerable evidence that electrical stimulation of the superior laryngeal nerve and the pharyngeal branch of glossopharyngeal nerve can elicit swallowing in animals, only a few attempts have been made to elicit swallowing by electrical stimulation in man. The aim of the present study was to establish an effective way eliciting swallowing by electrical stimulation in man. Methods: In four healthy volunteers, a custom-made monopolar silver electrode connected with flexible teflon-coated multi strained stainless steel wire was introduced into the pharynx via the nasal cavity under the endoscopical observation. The stimulating electrode was fixed on the posterior wall of the oropharynx or hypopharynx and the indifferent electrode was placed on the forehead. Then, 30 trains of electrical pulses (1 ms duration at 30 Hz, maximum intensity < 0.8 mA) were delivered. Swallows were identified by visual observation of movement of larynx and electromyographic (EMG) burst of suprahyoid muscles. Results: Both oropharyngeal and hypopharyngeal stimulation successfully elicit swallowing. No significant difference was noted in the threshold for eliciting swallowing between these stimulus sites. Also, no significant difference was noted in the latency, amplitude and duration of swallow-related EMG bursts of the suprahyoid muscles. It was notable that the incidence of swallowing following stimulation was higher for the hypopharyngeal stimulation (97.8%) than for oropharyngeal stimulation (79.6%). Conclusion: Electrical stimulation of oropharynx and hypopharynx with the use of monopolar electrode introduced via the nasal cavity is an effective way to elicit swallowing in man. 11 Clinical Application of Corticospinal MEP and Control of Post-Stroke Movement Disorders by Chronic Motor Cortex Stimulation Takamitsu Yamamoto, Hideki Oshima, Chikashi Fukaya,Yoichi Katayama Division of Applied System Neuroscience, Department Advanced Medical Science and Neurological Surgery, Nihon University School of Medicine We employed the corticospinal motor evoked potential (D-wave) as a monitoring index of motor function. Direct cortical stimulation revealed that if one electrode was placed on the posterior half of the precentral gyrus, the D-wave could be recorded even with 10 mm-distant bipolar cortical stimulation, and the amplitude was larger with anode rather than cathode stimulation. Monitoring of the D-wave enabled the function of the corticospinal tract to be evaluated selectively. It is also useful for detection of the primary motor cortex, and we can employ D-wave for electrode placement in chronic motor cortex stimulation. We reported more than decade ago that motor cortex stimulation (MCS) is sometimes useful in controlling post-stroke pain. During MCS for such purpose, we noticed that some patients also show obvious improvement in their motor function. This effect was not dependent on post-stroke pain control. We analyzed characteristics of the improvement of motor function in 54 patients who underwent MCS. Motor evoked potential was employed to identify appropriate stimulation sites for MCS. MCS attenuated for hemichorea-athetosis in 2 of 4 patients, distal resting or action tremor in all of 4 patients, and proximal postural tremor in 1 of 3 patients. In 6 patients with motor weakness, Fugl-Meyer score of the upper extremity increased around 5 to 8 points in 3 of the 6 patients. These effects resulted in significant improvement in their motor performance. In 2 patients who continued excessive MCS to control their complicated post-stroke pain, however, motor performance worsened by increased rigidity and/or spasticity. These results indicate that MCS could be a new therapeutic approach to improve motor performance after stroke through attenuating hemichorea-athetosis, tremor, and rigidity and/or spasticity. These effects appear to be maximized by identifying the primary motor cortex as a stimulation site by motor evoked potential. However, it may be important to define appropriate duration and intensity of MCS. 12 Role of motor cortex neuroplasticity in development of orofacial motor skins and in adaptation to pain and other intraoral conditions BARRY J. SESSLE Faculty of Dentistry, University of Toronto It is becoming increasingly apparent that the primary motor cortex (MI) is important not only in the initiation and regulation of motor function but also in the learning and adaptation of motor behaviours to an altered peripheral state. To examine the possible role that the face MI may play in trained or semi-automatic orofacial motor behaviours and in behavioural adaptations to an altered oral environment, we have carried out a series of studies that have utilised intracortical microstimulation (ICMS), reversible MI cold block, and single neurone recordings in face MI of monkeys and rats as well as transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) in humans. Our studies in monkeys have revealed that face MI plays a strategic role in elemental and learned motor behaviours and in chewing and swallowing. Furthermore, successful training of awake monkeys in a novel tongue-protrusion task is associated with significant neuroplastic changes in face MI, e.g. a 20% increase in the proportion of discrete MI efferent zones for tongue protrusion (as revealed by ICMS) as well as marked increases in the proportions of MI neurones with tongue protrusion-related activity and with a tongue mechanoreceptive field. These novel findings of face MI neuroplasticity in monkeys are supported by correlated TMS findings in humans which have revealed significantly enhanced corticomotoneuronal excitability when humans learn the novel tongue-protrusion task. Moreover, intraoral pain in humans can interfere with the learning of the task and with the associated MI excitability changes. Our recent ICMS studies in rats suggest that face MI neuroplasticity is also important in adaptation to an altered oral environment : intraoral noxious stimulation can reduce MI excitability, consistent with our human data, and in addition trimming or extraction of the rat’s lower incisors or damage to the rat’s lingual nerve can result in significant changes in the cortical motor representations of the tongue or jaw muscles. These findings suggest that the face MI is important not only in the initiation and regulation of orofacial motor function but also in orofacial motor skill acquisition, reflecting dynamic and modifiable constructs that are modelled by behaviourally significant experiences. The face MI neuroplasticity also occurring in association with intraoral pain, an altered dental occlusion or lingual sensory loss suggests the crucial involvement of face MI in adaptive processes in response to an altered oral environment. 13 Selected References Boudreau, S., Romaniello, A., Wang, K., Svensson, P., Sessle, B.J. and Arendt-Nielsen, L.

Salter Program in Neurosciences & Mental Health, Hospital for Sick Children, University of Toronto Centre for the Study of Pain Microglia in the dorsal horn of the spinal cord are increasingly recognized as being crucial in the pathogenesis of pain hypersensitivity following peripheral nerve injury (PNI). Central to the action of microglia is the P2X4 purinoceptor which is essential for maintaining pain behaviours after PNI (Tsuda et al, Nature 424:778-783, 2003). PNI causes a rise intracellular level of Cl and thereby to disinhibition of nociceptive neurons in lamina I of the dorsal horn (Coull et al, Nature 424:938-942, 2003). The rise in Cl is mediated by brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF), released upon P2X4 receptor (P2X4R) stimulation from spinal microglia, acting via TrkB receptors on the lamina I neurons (Coull et al, Nature 438:1017-1021, 2005). Recently, we 2+ have found that stimulating P2X4Rs with ATP evokes a Ca -dependent biphasic release of BDNF from microglia: an early phase occurs within 5 min, whereas a late phase peaks 60 min after ATP-stimulation. The early phase of P2X4R-evoked BDNF release is due to release of a pre-existing pool of BDNF whereas the late phase is due to de novo BDNF synthesis. The release of BDNF is abolished by inhibiting SNARE-mediated exocytosis. Furthermore, the P2X4R-evoked release and synthesis of BDNF are dependent upon activation of p38-mitogen activated protein kinase (MAPK). Together, our findings elucidate a mechanism for pain hypersensitivity 2+ following PNI through P2X4R-evoked increase in Ca and activation of p38-MAPK leading to the synthesis and exocytotic release of BDNF from microglia. Targeting the P2X4R-mediated pathway that mediates BDNF release provides new therapeutic opportunities for neuropathic pain.

The most common causes are cerebrovascular lesions, multiple sclerosis and traumatic spinal cord injuries and the incidences of developing chronic pain are around 8%, 28% and 30%, respectively. The treatment of CNP remains a major challenge. The mechanisms giving rise to CNP are still poorly understood but are generally believed to involve alterations in the properties of sensory neurons at the level of the thalamus. This talk will briefly describe the main clinical features of CNP and then review the main mechanisms that have been proposed to explain CNP. Studies we have performed in humans during functional stereotactic surgery that relate to some of the proposed mechanisms will be presented. 16 The role of spinal microglial in neuropathic pain: Postnatal developmental changes and the effect of early injury Simon Beggs Faculty of Dentistry, University of Toronto, Canada Neuropathic pain behaviour following peripheral nerve injury (PNI) is not observed in neonatal rats and does not develop until rats are 4 weeks of age at the time of surgery. Spinal microglia are known to play a key role in neuropathic pain and here we show that dorsal horn microglial proliferation, is significantly less in postnatal day (P) 10 rat pups than in adults, 7 days after PNI. This was confirmed by qPCR analysis of IBA-1 mRNA and mRNA of other microglial markers, integrin-alpha M, MHC-II DMalpha and MHC-II DMbeta. The results clearly demonstrate immaturity of the microglial response triggered by nerve injury in the first postnatal weeks which underlies the absence of tactile allodynia following peripheral nerve injury in young rats. However, tissue injury in a critical neonatal period can produce long-term alterations in sensory processing and enhance pain sensitivity to repeated injury in later life. Using the plantar hindpaw incision model in the rat pup, we evaluated the response to repeat incision in adulthood to determine if prior neonatal surgical injury alters the degree of postoperative hyperalgesia and is associated with changes in spinal microglial activity. Hyperalgesia was quantified by recording flexion reflex EMG responses to hindpaw mechanical stimuli and microglial activity in the dorsal horn determined by Iba1 immunoreactivity and susceptibility to minocycline treatment. Reflex sensitivity was significantly greater in the repeat versus single incision groups. Iba1 immunoreactivity in the dorsal horn was increased 3 days following adult single incision but was apparent earlier (24 hours) and more marked at 3 days after repeat incision. Pre-treatment with intrathecal minocycline blocked hyperalgesia in the repeat incision group but had no effect 24 hours following single incision. Neonatal hindpaw incision is associated with an enhanced response to subsequent injury that persists until adulthood. Alterations in the time course and degree of microglial proliferation in the spinal cord are likely to contribute to the long-term enhancement of responses to repeat surgery. Effects of intrathecal minocycline in the repeat incision group suggest centrally-mediated inhibition of microglial activation. These studies have implications for perioperative pain management and outcomes in children and adults with prior neonatal surgery. 17 Tooth pulp application of P2X1,2/3,3 receptor agonist produces central sensitization in the rat medullary dorsal horn (MDH) Pavel S. Cherkas, Jonathan O. Dostrovsky, and Barry J. Sessle University of Toronto, ON, Canada Activation of purinergic receptors is involved in mechanisms of central sensitization. The aim of this study was to test if central sensitization in the rat MDH is induced by application of the P2X1,2/3,3 receptor agonist αß-meATP to the tooth pulp (TP) and blocked by the P2X1,2/3,3 antagonist TNP-ATP. TP application of phosphate-buffered saline (PBS) produced no induction of central sensitization in MDH nociceptive neurons: cutaneous mechanoreceptive field (RF) size (3 ± 0.8%, N = 6, p > 0.05), responses to noxious mechanical stimuli (4.4 ± 0.7%, N = 6, p > 0.05) and mechanical activation threshold (2.1 ± 0.3%, N = 6, p > 0.05). However, application of αß-meATP (100 mM) to TP induced central sensitization: significant increases in RF size (44 ± 8%, N = 12, p < 0.05) and responses to noxious stimuli (58 ± 6.3%, N = 12, p < 0.05) and decreased mechanical activation threshold (29 ± 8.2%, N = 6, p < 0.05). Application of TNP-ATP (0.1 mM) to the TP markedly reduced the αßmeATP-induced effects on RF size (N = 6, p < 0.05), responses to noxious stimuli (N = 6, p < 0.05), and mechanical activation threshold (N = 6, p < 0.05). These results suggest that activation of P2X1,2/3,3 receptors in peripheral tissues plays a critical role in producing central sensitization in dorsal horn nociceptive neurons. 18 Involvement of paratrigeminal nociceptive neurons in temporomandibular joint pain Koichi Iwata1) and Yoko Yamazaki2) 1) Department of Physiology, Nihon University School of Dentistry, 2) Department of Orofacial Pain Management, Tokyo Medical and Dental University Temporomandibular joint disorders (TMJD) are recurrent diseases frequently observed in the dental clinic. TMJD patients have a variety of symptoms such as jaw movement disorder and TMJ pain. It is possible that the stress-related autonomic alteration occurs in TMJD patients. However, the neural mechanisms underlying orofacial pain and related autonomic responses associated with TMJ inflammation remain unclear. Pa5 neurons are thought to be involved in autonomic functions such as controlling of the cardiovascular system. The experimental TMJ inflammation results in expression of Fos proteins in Pa5 neurons as well as in the trigeminal spinal subnucleus caudalis (Vc). Based on these data, we hypothesized that Pa5 neurons are involved in processing trigeminal nociceptive information as well as autonomic information related to nociception. However, the type of nociceptive neurons in Pa5 that are involved in the processing of this information is not known. To evaluate the involvement of paratrigeminal nucleus (Pa5) nociceptive neurons in TMJ inflammation-induced pain and its autonomic correlates, we conducted behavioral, single unit recording and Fos immunohistochemical studies in anesthetized rats. Nocifensive behaviors to mechanical, heat or cold stimulation of the lateral face over the TMJ region were significantly enhanced in the TMJ-inflamed rats for 10-14 days after injection of complete Freund’s adjuvant (CFA) into the TMJ and gradually decreased at the end of the 14 days observation period. Lowering of the nocifensive threshold in TMJ-inflamed rats lasted longer in vagus nervetransected rats than vagus nerve-intact rats. A large number of Fos-like immunoreactive (LI) cells were observed in the Pa5, and half of them were retrogradely labeled with fluorogold (FG) injected into the parabrachial nucleus. Background activity of Pa5 wide dynamic range and nociceptive specific neurons was significantly higher in the TMJ-inflamed rats when compared with controls. Responses to mechanical stimuli were significantly higher in NS neurons in the TMJinflamed rats. All thermal responsive Pa5 neurons were exclusively sensitive to cold and the response to cold was significantly higher in the TMJ-inflamed rats compared with control rats. Vagus nerve stimulation significantly decreased responses to mechanical and cold stimuli as well as the background activity in TMJ-treated rats but not in TMJ-untreated rats. The present findings suggest that populations of Pa5 neurons are nociceptive and involved in TMJ inflammation-induced pain as well as in autonomic processes related to TMJ pain. 19
