Abstract:Due to its unclear pathological mechanism and poor clinical efficacy, neuropathic pain (NP) has always been a difficult problem in the medical field. Numerous studies have demonstrated that activation of microglia and its consequent anti-inflammatory or pro-inflammatory responses play an important role in the development of NP. In addition, microglia polarization can be divided into pro-inflammatory M1 type and anti-inflammatory M2 type, which play different roles in the regulation of NP. The author mainly examines the relationship between microglia polarization and NP, explores the potential for controlling the microglia's phenotype to affect NP, and looks for novel therapeutic options.
