Concentration of Receptors With Affinity for Cannabidiol and Cannabinol and the Effect on Chronic Orofacial Pain of Muscle Origin

Sponsor: Wroclaw Medical University

Summary

The main aim of the presented project will be to examine the concentration of selected receptors (CB1, CB2, TRPV-1) showing affinity for binding to cannabidol (CBD) and cannabinol (CBN) in blood samples collected from people with chronic pain in the masticatory muscles and from people without this pain. Moreover, study participants will be examined by a qualified doctor, according to the validated and standardized international DC/TMD protocol (Diagnostic Criteria for Temporomandibular Disorders) and the criteria included in ICOP-1 (International Classification of Orofacial Pain, 1st edition). The nature and duration of pain, psychoemotional state and central sensitization (the phenomenon of increased reactivity of the nervous system to stimuli) will be determined using validated questionnaires. The obtained results will be subjected to statistical analysis in order to check the relationships between the examined parameters.
