Abstract

Graphical AbstractIllustration of nerve-cancer interactions showing neurons, sympathetic and parasympathetic nerves, sensory neurons, and cancer-associated nerves connecting to tumor cells via synapse-like contacts, influencing cancer with neurotransmitters and signaling molecules, targeted nanoparticles, extracellular vesicles, macrophages, and CD8+ cells leading to impaired immunity.
