Sensory nerves' possible roles in the tumor microenvironment. Sensory neuronal projections infiltrate the tumor microenvironment. The study of Prazeres and colleagues indicates that sensory nerves block cancer progression. 124 Cellular and molecular mechanisms by which sensory nerves influence cancer development remain uncertain. Future works should examine whether sensory nerves regulate tumor‐associated mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs), cancer stem cells, or/and dormant tumor cells
