Overview
Neurogenic inflammation is a general term used to describe the local release of inflammatory mediators from afferent neurons such as substance P and calcitonin gene-related peptide.
Pathophysiology
This process appears to play an important role in the pathogenesis of numerous diseases including asthma, fibromyalgia, eczema, psoriasis and migraine.
