Recently, the links between epithelial barrier loss and disease were extended to include initiation and propagation. To explore the effects of pathohistological changes in oral epithelia on pain, we utilized labial mucosa samples in diagnostic labial gland biopsies from patients with suspected Sjögren's syndrome (SS), because they frequently experience pain and discomfort. In most labial mucosa samples from patients diagnosed with SS, disseminated epithelial cellular edema was prevalent as ballooning degeneration. The disrupted epithelia contained larger numbers of infiltrating macrophages in patients with oral pain than in patients without pain. Immunohistochemistry revealed that edematous areas were distinct from normal areas, with disarranged cell-cell adhesion molecules (filamentous actin, E-cadherin, β-catenin). Furthermore, edematous areas were devoid of immunostaining for transient receptor potential channel vanilloid 4 (TRPV4), a key molecule in adherens junctions. In an investigation on whether impaired TRPV4 affect cell-cell adhesion, calcium stimulation induced intimate cell-cell contacts among oral epithelial cells from wild-type mice, while intercellular spaces were apparent in cells from TRPV4-knockout mice. The present findings highlight the relationship between macrophages and epithelia in oral pain processi抄録：英語フィールド
