Abstract
Chemotherapy-induced peripheral neuropathy (CIPN),referring to the damage to the peripheral nerves caused by exposure to a neurotoxic chemotherapeutic agent, is a common side effect amongst patients undergoing chemotherapy. Paclitaxel-induced peripheral neuropathy (PIPN) can lead to dose reduction or early cessation of chemotherapy, which is not conducive to patients'survival. Even after treatment is discontinued, PIPN symptoms carried a greater risk of worsening and plagued the patient's life, leading to long-term morbidity in survivors. Here, we summarize the research progress for clinical manifestations, risk factors, pathogenesis, prevention and treatment of PIPN, so as to embark on the path of preventing PIPN with prolongation of patient's life quality on a long-term basis.

Evaluation of 8% Capsaicin Patches in Chemotherapy-Induced Peripheral Neuropathy: A Retrospective Study in a Comprehensive Cancer Center. Cancers (Basel) 2023; 15:349. [PMID: 36672298 PMCID: PMC9856924 DOI: 10.3390/cancers15020349] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 4.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/22/2022] [Revised: 12/30/2022] [Accepted: 01/03/2023] [Indexed: 01/06/2023] Open
Abstract
Introduction: Chemotherapy-induced peripheral neuropathy (CIPN) is often painful and can arise during or after the end of oncological treatments. They are mostly induced by platinum salts, taxanes, and immunotherapies. Their incidence is estimated between 19 and 85%. They can require a chemotherapy dose reduction or early termination. The European Society for Medical Oncology (ESMO) recommends high-concentration capsaicin patch (HCCP) in second line for the treatment of painful CIPN. This treatment induces a significative pain relief but only shown by low-powered studies. The objective of this study was to evaluate efficacy and tolerability of HCCP applications in CIPN. Methods: This monocentric observational retrospective real-world-data study of the CERCAN cohort took place in the Western Cancer Institute's Anaesthesiology and Pain Department at Angers, France. Independent pain physicians completed the CGIC (Clinician Global Impression of Change) for each patient who benefited from HCCP applications for painful CIPN starting from 1 January 2014 to 22 December 2021, based on the collected data after every patch application. Results: A total of 57 patients (80.7% women) was treated with HCCP for painful CIPN, and 184 applications were realized, consisting of 296 sessions. CGIC found an important or complete pain relief for 61 applications (33.2%, corresponding to 43.9% patients). We found less efficacy for platinum-salts-induced CIPN compared to others (p = 0.0238). The efficacy was significatively higher for repeated applications when HCCP was used in second line compared to third line (p = 0.018). The efficacy of HCCP was significatively higher starting the third application (p = 0.0334). HCCPs were mainly responsible for local adverse events found in 66.6% patients (65.1% burning or painful sensation, 21.1% erythema). Conclusion: HCCP applications in painful CIPN induce an important pain relief with a global satisfying tolerability.

Abstract
TRPM3 is a calcium-permeable cation channel expressed in a range of sensory neurons that can be activated by heat and the endogenous steroid pregnenolone sulfate (PS). During inflammation, the expression and function of TRPM3 are both augmented in somatosensory nociceptors. However, in isolated dorsal root ganglion (DRG) neurons application of inflammatory mediators like prostaglandins and bradykinin (BK) inhibit TRPM3. Therefore, the aim of this study was to examine the effect of preceding activation of cultured 1 day old mouse DRG neurons by the inflammatory mediator BK on TRPM3-mediated calcium responses. Calcium signals were recorded using the intensity-based dye Fluo-8. We found that TRPM3-mediated calcium responses to PS were enhanced by preceding application of BK in cells that responded to BK with a calcium signal, indicating BK receptor (BKR) expression. The majority of cells that co-expressed TRPM3 and BKRs also expressed TRPV1, however, only a small fraction co-expressed TRPA1, identified by calcium responses to capsaicin and supercinnamaldehyde, respectively. Signaling and trafficking pathways responsible for sensitization of TRPM3 following BK were characterized using inhibitors of second messenger signaling cascades and exocytosis. Pharmacological blockade of protein kinase C, calcium–calmodulin-dependent protein kinase II and diacylglycerol (DAG) lipase did not affect BK-induced sensitization, but inhibition of DAG kinase did. In addition, release of calcium from intracellular stores using thapsigargin also resulted in TRPM3 sensitization. Finally, BK did not sensitize TRPM3 in the presence of exocytosis inhibitors. Collectively, we show that preceding activation of DRG neurons by BK sensitized TRPM3-mediated calcium responses to PS. Our results indicate that BKR-mediated activation of intracellular signaling pathways comprising DAG kinase, calcium and exocytosis may contribute to TRPM3 sensitization during inflammation.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Glutamate and metabotropic glutamate (mGlu) receptors on primary sensory neurons are crucial in modulating pain sensitivity. However, it is unclear how inflammation affects mGlu receptor-mediated nociceptive responses. We therefore investigated the effects of mGlu1/5 receptor agonists on pain-related behaviour during persistent inflammation and their underlying mechanisms. EXPERIMENTAL APPROACH Effects of a mGlu1/5 receptor agonist on pain-related behaviour during inflammation was assessed in mice. Intracellular calcium responses, membrane current responses, and protein expression in primary sensory neurons were examined using cultured dorsal root ganglion (DRG) neurons, dissociated from wild-type and gene knockout mice. KEY RESULTS Persistent inflammation induced by complete Freund's adjuvant increased the duration of mGlu1/5 receptor-mediated pain behaviour, which was antagonized by inhibition of nerve growth factor (NGF)-tropomyosin receptor kinase A (TrkA) signalling. Calcium imaging revealed that NGF treatment increased the number of cultured DRG neurons responding to mGlu1/5 receptor activation. Stimulation of mGlu1/5 receptors in NGF-treated DRG neurons induced inward currents through TRPV1 channels in association with PLC but not with IP3 receptors. NGF treatment also increased the number of neurons responding to a DAG analogue via TRPV1 channel activation. Furthermore, NGF up-regulated expression of TRPV1 and A-kinase anchoring protein 5 (AKAP5), resulting in increased AKAP5-dependent TRPV1 phosphorylation. AKAP5 knockout mice did not exhibit mGlu1/5 receptor-mediated excitation in NGF-treated DRG neurons or pain response facilitation under inflammatory conditions. CONCLUSIONS AND IMPLICATIONS NGF augments glutamate- and mGlu1/5 receptor-mediated excitation of nociceptive neurons by AKAP5-dependent phosphorylation of TRPV1 channels, potentiating hypersensitivity to glutamate in inflamed tissues.

Abstract
Taxane-derived drugs are antineoplastic agents used for the treatment of highly common malignancies. Paclitaxel and docetaxel are the most commonly used taxanes; however, other drugs and formulations have been used, such as cabazitaxel and nab-paclitaxel. Taxane treatment is associated with neurotoxicity, a well-known and relevant side effect, very prevalent amongst patients undergoing chemotherapy. Painful peripheral neuropathy is the most dose-limiting side effect of taxanes, affecting up to 97% of paclitaxel-treated patients. Central neurotoxicity is an emerging side effect of taxanes and it is characterized by cognitive impairment and encephalopathy. Besides impairing compliance to chemotherapy treatment, taxane-induced neurotoxicity (TIN) can adversely affect the patient's life quality on a long-term basis. Despite the clinical relevance, not many reviews have comprehensively addressed taxane-induced neurotoxicity when they are used therapeutically. This article provides an up-to-date review on the pathophysiology of TIN and the novel potential therapies to prevent or treat this side effect.

J Pain Res 2020; 13:1471-1483.

Abstract
Background Acute pain can transition to chronic pain, presenting a major clinical challenge. Electroacupuncture (EA) can partly prevent the transition from acute to chronic pain. However, little is known about the mechanisms underlying the effect of EA. This study investigated the effect of EA on pain transition and the activation of metabotropic glutamate receptor 5 (mGluR5)–protein kinase C epsilon (PKCε) signaling pathway in the dorsal root ganglia (DRG). Methods The hyperalgesic priming model was established by the sequential intraplantar injection of carrageenan (1%, 100 μL) and prostaglandin E2 (PGE2) into the left hind paw of rats. EA treatment (2/100 Hz, 30 min, once/day) was applied at bilateral Zusanli (ST36) and Kunlun (BL60) acupoints in rats. Von Frey filaments were used to investigate the mechanical withdrawal threshold (MWT) at different time points. The protein expression levels of mGluR5 and PKCε in the ipsilateral L4-L6 DRGs of rats were detected by Western blot. Some pharmacological experiments were performed to evaluate the relationship between mGluR5, PKCε and the MWT. It was also used to test the effects of EA on the expression levels of mGluR5 and PKCε and changes in the MWT. Results Sequential injection of carrageenan and PGE2 significantly decreased the MWT of rats and up-regulated the expression level of mGluR5 and PKCε in the ipsilateral L4-L6 DRGs. EA can reverse the hyperalgesic priming induced by sequential injection of carrageenan/PGE and down-regulate the protein expression of mGluR5 and PKCε. Glutamate injection instead of PGE2 can mimic the hyperalgesic priming model. Pharmacological blocking of mGluR5 with specific antagonist MTEP can prevent the hyperalgesic priming and inhibit the activation of PKCε in DRGs. Furthermore, EA also produced analgesic effect on the hyperalgesic priming rats induced by carrageenan/mGluR5 injection and inhibited the high expression of PKCε. Sham EA produced none analgesic and regulatory effect. Conclusion EA can regulate pain transition and it may relate with its inhibitory effect on the activation of mGluR5-PKCε signaling pathway in the DRGs.

Abstract
Bone cancer pain (BCP), which is induced by primary or metastatic bone cancer, remains a clinically challenging problem due to the poor understanding of its mechanisms. Sirtuin 1 (SIRT1) plays an important role in various pain models. Intrathecal administration of SRT1720, a SIRT1 activator, attenuates BCP in a rat model. However, the expression and activity of SIRT1 during the development and maintenance of BCP remain unknown. Furthermore, the underlying mechanism of SIRT1 in BCP remains ambiguous. In this study, we detected the time course of SIRT1 expression and activity in the spinal cord of mice with BCP and examined whether SRT1720 alleviated BCP by inhibiting metabotropic glutamatergic receptor (mGluR) 1/5 expression. In addition, we downregulated spinal SIRT1 expression in normal mice through an intrathecal injection of AAV-SIRT1-shRNA and then assessed pain behavior and mGluR1/5 expression. Mice with BCP developed significant mechanical allodynia and spontaneous flinching, accompanied by decreased levels of the SIRT1 protein, mRNA, and activity in the spinal cord. The SRT1720 treatment produced an analgesic effect on tumor-bearing mice and decreased the spinal levels of the mGluR1/5 protein and mRNA. In contrast, the AAV-SIRT1-shRNA treatment induced pain behavior in normal mice and increased the spinal levels of the mGluR1/5 protein and mRNA. The results suggested a critical role for SIRT1 in the development and maintenance of BCP and further indicated that activation of SIRT1 in the spinal cord by SRT1720 functionally reverses BCP in mice by inhibiting mGluR1/5.

Abstract
Transient receptor potential vanilloid type 1 channel (TRPV1), as a ligand-gated non-selective cation channel, has recently been demonstrated to have wide expression in the neuro-immune axis, where its multiple functions occur through regulation of both neuronal and non-neuronal activities. Growing evidence has suggested that TRPV1 is functionally expressed in glial cells, especially in the microglia and astrocytes. Glial cells perform immunological functions in response to pathophysiological challenges through pro-inflammatory or anti-inflammatory cytokines and chemokines in which TRPV1 is involved. Sustaining inflammation might mediate a positive feedback loop of neuroinflammation and exacerbate neurological disorders. Accumulating evidence has suggested that TRPV1 is closely related to immune responses and might be recognized as a molecular switch in the neuroinflammation of a majority of seizures and neurodegenerative diseases. In this review, we evidenced that inflammation modulates the expression and activity of TRPV1 in the central nervous system (CNS) and TRPV1 exerts reciprocal actions over neuroinflammatory processes. Together, the literature supports the hypothesis that TRPV1 may represent potential therapeutic targets in the neuro-immune axis.

Abstract
The transient receptor potential vanilloid 1 (TRPV1) channel is highly expressed in a subset of sensory neurons in the dorsal root ganglia (DRG) and trigeminal ganglia of experimental animals, responsible for nociception. Many researches have revealed that some TRPV1-positive neurons co-express the transient receptor potential ankyrin 1 (TRPA1) channel whose activities are closely modulated by TRPV1 channel. However, it is less investigated whether the activities of TRPV1 channel are modulated by the presence of TRPA1 channel in primary sensory neurons. This study clarified the difference in electrophysiological responses induced by TRPV1 channel activation between TRPA1-positive and TRPA1-negative DRG. TRPV1 and TRPA1 channel activations were evoked by capsaicin (1 μM), a TRPV1 agonist, and allyl isothiocyanate (AITC; 500 μM), a TRPA1 agonist, respectively. Capsaicin perfusion for 15 s caused a large inward current without a desensitization phase at a membrane potential of −70 mV in AITC-insensitive DRG (current density; 29.6 ± 5.6 pA/pF, time constant of decay; 12.8 ± 1.8 s). The capsaicin-induced currents in AITC-sensitive DRG had a small current density (12.7 ± 2.9 pA/pF) with a large time constant of decay (24.3 ± 5.4 s). In calcium imaging with Fura-2, the peak response by capsaicin was small and duration reaching the peak response was long in AITC-sensitive neurons. These electrophysiological differences were completely eliminated by HC-030031, a TRPA1 antagonist, in an extracellular solution or 10 mM EGTA, a Ca2+ chelator, in an internal solution. Capsaicin perfusion for 120 s desensitized the inward currents after a transient peak. The decay during capsaicin perfusion was notably slow in AITC-sensitive DRG; ratio of capsaicin-induced current 60 s after the treatment per the peak current in AITC-sensitive neurons (78 ± 9%) was larger than that in AITC-insensitive neurons (48 ± 5%). The capsaicin-induced current in the desensitization phase was attenuated by HC-030031 in AITC-insensitive DRG. These results indicate that (1) TRPV1-mediated currents in TRPA1-positive neurons characterize small current densities with slow decay, which is caused by TRPA1 channel activities and intracellular Ca2+ mobilization and (2) desensitization of TRPV1-mediated current in TRPA1-positive neurons is apparently slow, due to appending TRPA1-mediated current.
