Upregulation of cystathionine-ß-synthetase expression contributes to inflammatory pain in rat temporomandibular joint
Conclusion:
These data together with our previous report indicate that endogenous H2S generating enzyme CBS plays an important role in TMJ inflammation, which is likely mediated by inhibition of IK currents, thus identifying a specific molecular mechanism underlying pain and sensitization in TMJ inflammation.
