Pain Pathways: Molecular to Chronic Relief
Received Date: Jun 02, 2025 / Published Date: Jun 30, 2025
Abstract
Pain signaling involves complex neural pathways initiated by nociceptors and processed in the central nervous system. Glial cells, ion channels, and neurotransmitters critically regulate pain transmission. Central sensitization amplifies pain signaling, contributing to chronic pain states, which are further influenced by molecular changes and emotional factors. Therapeutic approaches target these mechanisms to alleviate pain, facing challenges in achieving selectivity and efficacy.
