Osteoimmunology: Fundamental,
Clinical and Translational Implications
in Temporomandibular Disorders
KIPJ.Room.G

1:15 p.m. – 3:00 p.m.
Organizers:. Andre Barkhordarian and. Francesco Chiappelli.

Program.sponsored.by.the.Pacific.Division.section.on.Oral.Biology.
and.Dental.Medicine.
Osteoimmunology.refers.to.the.regulating.interplay,.interaction,.and.
(or).interconnectivity.between.bone.and.immune.biology..The.interplay.begins.when.bone.provides.the.microenvironment.that.is.critical.for.the.development.of.the.hematopoietic.stem.cells.from.which.
all.cells.of.the.mammalian.immune.system.derive,.and.they.in.turn.
produce.various.immunoregulatory.cytokines.that.influence.the.fate.
of.bone.cells..Besides.sharing.signaling.molecules,.bone.and.immune.
cells. have. a. common. site. of. origin.. They. influence. each. other. not.
only.after.maturation.and.activation,.but.also.at.the.formation.stage.as.
apparent.in.the.role.of.osteoblasts.in.the.establishment.of.hematopoietic.stem.cell.niches.and.their.maintenance.in.bone.marrow..Abnormalities.in.immune.system.cause.skeletal.damages.that.eventually.lead.
to.osteoimmunpathologies.such.as.Temporomandibular.disorders.and.
dysfunctions.(TMD/TMJD)..Temporomandibular.disorders.are.conditions.that.affect.masticatory.muscles,.the.mandibular.joints,.and.other.
associated.structures..Various.inflammatory.mediators.and.cytokines.
influence.the.pathogenic.mechanisms.involving.interactions.between.
immune.cells.and.bone..Temporomandibular.disorders.whether.they.
are.internal.derangements.or.a.mal-relationship.of.the.mandible.to.the.
cranial.base.have.a.systemic/neurologic.component..The.compression.
or. irritation. of. the.Auriculotemporal. nerve. at. a. sub-threshold. level.
may.lead.to.neurologic.disorders.such.as.Cervical.Dystonia.and.Parkinson’s..When.the.TMJ.is.treated,.decrease.or.cessation.of.the.symptomology.is.observed..In.this.symposium.we.will.explore.local.and.
systemic.implications.that.are.associated.with.TMD/TMJD.
