The journal publishes research on the molecular and cellular mechanisms underlying pain, including neuropathic pain, inflammatory pain, and chronic pain conditions. Studies investigate potential biomarkers, therapeutic targets, and the effects of various interventions such as acupuncture, pharmacological agents, and cell-based therapies. Research also explores the role of genetic factors, signaling pathways, and neuro-immune interactions in pain sensitization and modulation.
