Abstract
We propose an overview of the molecular cues and their intracellular signaling involved in the crosstalk between cancer and the nervous system. While “cancer neuroscience” as a field is still in its infancy, the relation between cancer and the nervous system has been known for a long time, and a huge body of experimental data provides evidence that tumor–nervous system connections are widespread. They encompass different mechanisms at different tumor progression steps, are multifaceted, and display some intriguing analogies with the nervous system’s physiological processes. Overall, we can say that many of the paradigmatic “hallmarks of cancer” depicted by Weinberg and Hanahan are affected by the nervous system in a variety of manners.
