Painful peripheral neuropathy is a dose-limiting side effect of cisplatin treatment. Using a murine model of cisplatin-induced hyperalgesia, we determined whether a PPAR gamma synthetic agonist, pioglitazone, attenuated the development of neuropathic pain and identified underlying mechanisms. Cisplatin produced mechanical and cold hyperalgesia and decreased electrical thresholds of AZ. and C fibers, which were attenuated by coadministration of pioglitazone (10 mg/kg, intraperitoneally [i.p.]) with cisplatin. Antihyperalgesic effects of pioglitazone were blocked by the PPAR gamma antagonist T0070907 (10 mg/kg, i.p.). We hypothesized that the ability of pioglitazone to reduce the accumulation of reactive oxygen species (ROS) in dorsal root ganglion (DRG) neurons contributed to its antihyperalgesic activity. Effects of cisplatin and pioglitazone on somatosensory neurons were studied on dissociated mouse DRG neurons after 24 hours in vitro. Incubation of DRG neurons with cisplatin (13 mu M) for 24 hours increased the occurrence of depolarization-evoked calcium transients, and these were normalized by coincubation with pioglitazone (10 mu M). Oxidative stress in DRG neurons was considered a significant contributor to cisplatin-evoked hyperalgesia because a ROS scavenger attenuated hyperalgesia and normalized the evoked calcium responses when cotreated with cisplatin. Pioglitazone increased the expression and activity of ROS-reducing enzymes in DRG and normalized cisplatin-evoked changes in oxidative stress and labeling of mitochondria with the dye MitoTracker Deep Red, indicating that the antihyperalgesic effects of pioglitazone were attributed to its antioxidant properties in DRG neurons. These data demonstrate clear benefits of broadening the use of the antidiabetic drug pioglitazone, or other PPAR gamma agonists, to minimize the development of cisplatin-induced painful neuropathy.
