Paclitaxel Regulates TRPA1 Function and Expression Through PKA and PKC

Julio C. Sanchez et al.

Summary: Paclitaxel (PTX) increases the expression and activity of TRPA1 channel, which is involved in PTX-induced peripheral neuropathy. The effect of PTX on TRPA1 is regulated by PKA and PKC signaling. These findings support the role of TRPA1 in PTX-induced neuropathy.

Modulation of KIF17/NR2B crosstalk by tozasertib attenuates inflammatory pain in rats

Ankit Uniyal et al.

Summary: Chronic pain is a burdensome disorder affecting millions of people worldwide, and recent studies have revealed the important role of kinesin nanomotors. In an animal model, the aurora kinase inhibitor tozasertib can alleviate acute inflammatory pain and suppress hypersensitivity to different stimuli. Further investigations demonstrate that tozasertib can also attenuate oxidative stress and immune cell activation induced by chronic pain. These findings suggest that tozasertib exerts its anti-nociceptive effects by inhibiting the aurora kinase-mediated signaling.

Immune Actions on the Peripheral Nervous System in Pain

Jessica Aijia Liu et al.

Summary: Pain can be induced by tissue injuries, diseases, and infections. The interactions between the peripheral nervous system (PNS) and immune system play crucial roles in pain sensitization processes. Immune cells release mediators that activate nociceptors and promote sensitization, while also contributing to PNS repair and pain resolution.

Chemotherapy-induced peripheral neuropathy (CIPN): current therapies and topical treatment option with high-concentration capsaicin

Christian Maihoefner et al.

Summary: Cancer diagnosis and treatment are significant events with potential severe side effects, including chemotherapy-induced peripheral neuropathy (CIPN). Some patients may face chronic symptoms, highlighting the importance of prevention and treatment strategies. Improved survival rates for cancer patients may lead to an increased incidence of CIPN in the future.
