尽管到目前为止遗传学的研究还没有改进疼痛的治疗,一些研究者依然认为大量的发现指日可待。神经科学家史蒂芬·韦克斯曼(Stephen Waxman)试图了解基因是如何影响慢性疼痛的,他希望通过解开这个谜团使患者获益。这些患者中,有一些是由于旧伤,有一些是因为糖尿病造成的神经损害,他们都处在极度的痛苦中。还有一些正在与罕 Although so far the study of genetics has not improved the treatment of pain, some researchers still believe that a large number of findings just around the corner. Neuroscientist Stephen Waxman tries to understand how genes affect chronic pain and hopes to benefit patients by unlocking the mystery. Some of these patients are due to old injuries and some are due to the nerve damage caused by diabetes and they are all in extreme pain. Others are working with Han
