Abstract

This chapter discusses how cancer pain is generated and how the sensory information it initiates is processed as it moves from sense organ to the cerebral cortex under a constantly changing molecular architecture. Topics covered include primary afferent sensory neurons, tumour properties that excite nociceptors, tumour-induced release of protons and acidosis, tumor-induced distension and destruction of sensory fibers, and central sensitization in cancer pain.
