Vasoconstriction can impact cancer treatment in several ways:
Drug Delivery: Reduced blood flow can hinder the delivery of chemotherapy drugs to the tumor, making the treatment less effective. Hypoxia: Constricted blood vessels can increase hypoxia within the tumor, leading to a more hostile environment for cancer cells but also potentially making them more resistant to radiation therapy. Immune Response: The immune system's ability to target and destroy cancer cells can be compromised if immune cells cannot efficiently reach the tumor due to poor blood flow.
