Transcriptome analysis reveals dysregulation of inflammatory and neuronal function in dorsal root ganglion of paclitaxel-induced peripheral neuropathy rats.

ABSTRACT: Chemotherapy-induced peripheral neuropathy (CIPN) is the most common side-effect of anti-cancer therapy. To date, there are no clinically effective analgesics that could prevent and treat CIPN. However, the exact pathogenesis of CIPN is still unclear. In the present study, we use the paclitaxel-induced peripheral neuropathy (PIPN) model, aiming to better understand the transcriptomic level of the Dorsal root ganglia (DRG) neurons in rats with PIPN. mRNA from each DRG sample was reverse transcribed to cDNA and sequenced using next-generation high throughput sequencing technology. Quantitative RT-PCR verification was used to confirm the identified Differentially expressed genes (DEGs) in the DRG of PIPN rats. RNAseq results have identified 384 DEGs (adjusted P-value < 0.05; fold chang
