The role of T-lymphocytes in neuropathic pain initiation, development of chronicity and treatment
Ongoing research has strongly suggested the role the immune system plays in the pathogenesis of neuropathic pain. T cells appear to be one of the main regulators of the immune system with many mediators appearing to promote or suppress pain resolution. Limited effective therapies are available for t...

description | Ongoing research has strongly suggested the role the immune system plays in the pathogenesis of neuropathic pain. T cells appear to be one of the main regulators of the immune system with many mediators appearing to promote or suppress pain resolution. Limited effective therapies are available for treatment of neuropathic pain. Treatments available appear to modulate specific T cell with altered ratios present 3 months post treatment and parallels clinical improvement. This further supports the neuro-immune basis for neuropathic pain chronicity. Identification of novel immune mediators involved in pain development may suggest new target areas in treatment. |
