Abnormal trigeminal sensory processing in obese mice
Open accessAbstract
Obesity is associated with several pain disorders including headache. The effects of obesity on the trigeminal nociceptive system, which mediates headache, remain unknown. We used 2 complementary mouse models of obesity (high-fat diet and leptin deficiency) to examine this. We assessed capsaicin-induced nocifensive behavior and photophobia in obese and control mice. Calcium imaging was used to determine the effects of obesity on the activity of primary trigeminal afferents in vitro. We found that obese mice had a normal acute response to a facial injection of capsaicin, but they developed photophobic behavior at doses that had no effect on control mice. We observed higher calcium influx in cultured trigeminal ganglia neurons from obese mice and a higher percentage of medium to large diameter capsaicin-responsive cells. These findings demonstrate that obesity results in functional changes in the trigeminal system that may contribute to abnormal sensory processing. Our findings provide the foundation for in-depth studies to improve the understanding of the effects of obesity on the trigeminal system and may have implications for the pathophysiology of headache disorders.

“The reductions in nerve endings and network complexity suggest a potential mechanism for sensory alterations in obesity, including the reduced sensitivity to whisker stimulation observed by us and the aberrant sensory and pain processing previously observed in obese mice30–32.”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
