Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Recently, science has demonstrated that a specific relationship exists between the immune system and the development of pain. In this context, studies involving the investigation of neuroinflammation have been of great interest to pain medicine, both for unveiling new mechanisms of action and the development of treatment strategies.
Present in the scientific literature are articles elucidating mechanisms involved in the neuroinflammatory responses to different types of pain, as well as treatment strategies for controlling these mechanisms and, consequently, the associated pain.
We are focusing on devising strategies that allow scientific innovation, mainly through new tools, technologies, and studies that help us to uncover mechanisms involved in neuroinflammation and pain medicine.
Authors are invited to submit relevant original research articles, as well as reviews and systematic review articles.
