Investigating the Role of Potassium Channels in Chronic Pain Pathogenesis Among HIV-Infected Individuals
research interests
Chronic pain remains a pervasive and challenging aspect of HIV infection, significantly impacting the quality of life for affected individuals. Potassium channels, pivotal regulators of neuronal excitability and neurotransmitter release, have emerged as promising targets in understanding pain mechanisms. However, their specific involvement in chronic pain among HIV-infected individuals remains underexplored. We seek to elucidate the intricate interplay between potassium channels and chronic pain in the context of HIV infection.
