Genome-wide association reveals contribution of MRAS to painful temporomandibular disorder in males
13 Nov 2018
Abstract excerpt
Painful temporomandibular disorders (TMDs) are the leading cause of chronic orofacial pain, but its underlying molecular mechanisms remain obscure. Although many environmental factors have been associated with higher risk of developing painful TMD, family and twin studies support a heritable genetic component as well. We performed a genome-wide association study assuming an additive genetic model of TMD in a...
