Alcohol-Induced Neuropathy: Exploring the Impact on Molecular Channels and Pain Mechanisms
Journal Title: International Journal Of Ayurvedic And Herbal Medicine - Year 2025, Vol 15, Issue 02
Abstract
Neuropathic pain is a severe form of pain that is brought on by dysfunction in the brain and is connected with a number of degenerative alterations in the nervous system. Hyperalgesia and allodynia are two of the main symptoms of pain. Many neurological diseases seen in chronic alcoholics are linked to dietary deficiencies, especially vitamin deficits that are crucial for healthy brain function. The brain may suffer from severe functional impairment and tissue damage, mostly neuronal and vascular, as a result of specific vitamin and nutritional shortages that develop in chronic alcoholics. Moreover, nutritional inadequacies in chronic alcoholics contribute to oxidative stress, metabolic dysfunction, ion channel dysfunction, and neurotransmitter dysfunction. There are numerous molecular mechanisms that contribute to the development of alcoholinduced neuropathy symptoms. A threonine/serine kinase protein kinase C (PKC) regulates various body functions like cell growth and differentiation, release of neurotransmitters, excitation of cellular membranes and in memory. It is necessary to investigate all connected pathways in order to create an effective therapy for neuropath disease.
