Burning mouth syndrome (BMS) is often an idiopathic chronic and intractable pain condition, affecting 1.5–5.5% of middle-aged and elderly women. We have studied the heat and capsaicin receptor TRPV1, and its regulator nerve growth factor (NGF), in BMS. Patients with BMS (n = 10) and controls (n = 10) were assessed for baseline and post-topical capsaicin pain scores, and their tongue biopsies immunostained for TRPV1, NGF, and structural nerve markers neurofilament and peripherin. Nerve fibres penetrating the epithelium were less abundant in BMS (p < 0.0001), indicating a small fibre neuropathy. TRPV1-positive fibres were overall significantly increased in BMS (p = 0.0011), as were NGF fibres (p < 0.0001) and basal epithelial cell NGF stainin...
