ObjectiveThe aim of this study was to assess the correlation of inflammatory and pain genes polymorphisms with the presence of temporomandibular disorder (TMD) patients and with pressure pain sensitivity.DesignData was collected from 268 consecutive subjects at Bauru School of Dentistry. Subjects aged younger than 20 years, with dental and neuropathic pain, sinusitis, cognitive and neurologic disorder were excluded. Included subjects were evaluated using the Research Diagnostic Criteria for Temporomandibular disorders and divided into two groups: TMD cases and healthy controls. Groups were submitted to pressure pain threshold (PPT) test for the temporomandibular joint, anterior temporalis and masseter muscles and genotyped for Val158Met, IL6-174, IL-1β-3954 and TNFA-308. Student's t-test and Pearson chi-square test were used to comparisons between groups. A linear multiple regression was used to evaluate the influence of genetics variables on the PPT and a bivariate analysis was used to assesses the influence of genetics variables on pain sensitivity below the PPT cut off of the structures in TMD group.ResultsTMD group showed significantly lower PPT values for all structures when compared with control group (p < 0.001). SNP IL6-174 predicted higher pain sensitivity in the temporomandibular joint (p < 0.005) and in anterior temporalis muscle (p < 0.044) and SNP Val158Met in the masseter muscle (p < 0.038); when TMD group was divided according to PPT cut-off values the SNP Val158Met influenced increase pain sensibility in the masseter muscle.ConclusionTNFA-308 was associated with TMD and SNP IL6-174 and SNP Val158Met influenced pain sensitivity of patients with TMD.Copyright © 2020 Elsevier Ltd.
