Team at Nottingham Trent University is investigating how chemotherapy in early life could damage nerve cells
Treatments that could help alleviate the chronic pain experienced by thousands of childhood cancer survivors are being investigated by scientists and researchers in the UK.
Hulse said cancer treatments such as chemotherapy in early life could damage nerve cells that detect pain, and could alter how pain is experienced as the patient becomes an adult. Hulse said chemotherapy could stop this from happening. “We want to explore how the immune system and these nerve cells interact. Mitochondria are important as they provide the cells with energy,” he said.
Steven McIntosh, Macmillan’s chief partnerships officer, said the cancer care system was “unfair and broken”.
