Understanding Nociceptive Pain in Cancer: Mechanisms and Implications
Received Date: Mar 02, 2024 / Published Date: Mar 29, 2024
Abstract
Nociceptive pain in cancer remains a significant clinical challenge, often stemming from the spread of cancer to bones, muscles, or joints, or due to the compression of organs or blood vessels. This article explores the underlying mechanisms of nociceptive pain, focusing on the role of nociceptors and excitatory neurotransmitters such as glutamate. Through an understanding of these mechanisms, novel therapeutic targets may emerge for the management of cancer-related pain.
