Abstract
Nerves from the sympathetic system are present in the tumour micro-environment. In the recent years, there has been a growing interest in their function. Sympathetic nerves are able to influence the tumour micro-environment by releasing norepinephrine. Norepinephrine binds to β-receptors. It has been demonstrated that a high density of β-receptors is present in the micro-environment. How this binding influences cancer progression and how this can be targeted in cancer treatment is discussed in this essay.
