    Glossary Pain Mediator

    substance that transmits and modulates pain signals in the body

    A pain mediator, also known as a pain signaling molecule, is a substance in the body that plays a crucial role in the transmission and modulation of pain signals. These molecules, such as prostaglandins, bradykinin, and substance P, are released in response to injury or inflammation and interact with nerve receptors to amplify the sensation of pain. Understanding pain mediators is essential for developing effective pain management therapies.
