Paclitaxel is an extensively used chemotherapy antitumor drug and paclitaxel-induced peripheral neuropathy (PIPN) is one of the most common side effect. Rapamycin, originally used as an adjuvant drug for chemotherapy, […]
Learn More >Neurotoxicity of chemotherapeutics involves peculiar alterations in the structure and function, including abnormal nerve signal transmission, of both the peripheral and central nervous system. The lack of effective pharmacological approaches […]
Learn More >Pain is a common consequence of childhood cancer. While most research has examined biomedical predictors of post-cancer pain, biopsychosocial conceptualisations such as the Cancer Threat Interpretation (CTI) model hold promise […]
Learn More >Chronic postoperative pain poses challenges, emphasizing the importance of accurately predicting pain in advance. Generally, pain perception is associated with the temporal dynamics of the brain, which can be represented […]
Learn More >The pathophysiological mechanism underlying chemotherapy-induced neuropathic pain (CINP) remains unclear. Sensory neuronal hypersensitivity in the dorsal root ganglion (DRG) is essential for the onset and maintenance of chronic pain. Satellite […]
Learn More >We have previously shown that intradermal injection of high-molecular-weight hyaluronan (500-1200 kDa) produces localized antihyperalgesia in preclinical models of inflammatory and neuropathic pain. In the present experiments, we studied the […]
Learn More >The voltage-gated sodium channel subtype Nav1.6 is involved in the electrophysiological changes of primary sensory neurons that occur in oxaliplatin-induced neuropathic pain, but its regulatory mechanism remains unclear. In this […]
Learn More >Oral cancer patients suffer pain at the site of the cancer. Calcitonin gene related polypeptide (CGRP), a neuropeptide expressed by a subset of primary afferent neurons, promotes oral cancer growth. […]
Learn More >Chemotherapy-induced peripheral neuropathy (CIPN) is a major unmet medical need with limited treatment options. Despite different mechanisms of action, diverse chemotherapeutics can cause CIPN through a converged pathway─an active axon […]
Learn More >Chemotherapy-induced peripheral neuropathy (CIPN) is an important adverse effect of treatment with oxaliplatin (OXA). We have developed PEGylated nanoliposomal oxaliplatin (OXA-LIP) and tested its activity in an animal model of […]
