Chemotherapy-induced peripheral neuropathy models constructed from human induced pluripotent stem cells and directly converted cells: a systematic review. Pain 2024; 165:1914-1925. [PMID: 38381959 PMCID: PMC11331829 DOI: 10.1097/j.pain.0000000000003193] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/14/2023] [Revised: 01/04/2024] [Accepted: 01/04/2024] [Indexed: 02/23/2024]
Abstract
ABSTRACT Developments in human cellular reprogramming now allow for the generation of human neurons for in vitro disease modelling. This technique has since been used for chemotherapy-induced peripheral neuropathy (CIPN) research, resulting in the description of numerous CIPN models constructed from human neurons. This systematic review provides a critical analysis of available models and their methodological considerations (ie, used cell type and source, CIPN induction strategy, and validation method) for prospective researchers aiming to incorporate human in vitro models of CIPN in their research. The search strategy was developed with assistance from a clinical librarian and conducted in MEDLINE (PubMed) and Embase (Ovid) on September 26, 2023. Twenty-six peer-reviewed experimental studies presenting original data about human reprogrammed nonmotor neuron cell culture systems and relevant market available chemotherapeutics drugs were included. Virtually, all recent reports modeled CIPN using nociceptive dorsal root ganglion neurons. Drugs known to cause the highest incidence of CIPN were most used. Furthermore, treatment effects were almost exclusively validated by the acute effects of chemotherapeutics on neurite dynamics and cytotoxicity parameters, enabling the extrapolation of the half-maximal inhibitory concentration for the 4 most used chemotherapeutics. Overall, substantial heterogeneity was observed in the way studies applied chemotherapy and reported their findings. We therefore propose 6 suggestions to improve the clinical relevance and appropriateness of human cellular reprogramming-derived CIPN models.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Cisplatin is a prevalent chemotherapeutic agent, and it has been used extensively to treat lung cancer. However, its clinical efficacy is hampered by its safety profile and dose-limiting toxicity. Saffron is a natural product that has shown significant anticancer effects. The combination treatment of saffron with chemotherapeutic agents has been considered a new strategy. METHODS Herein, saffron extract as a natural anticancer substance was combined with cisplatin to assess their combined efficacy against tumor development in vitro. In A549 and QU-DB cell lines, the combined effect of the saffron extract with cisplatin led to a significant reduction in cell viability as compared to cisplatin alone. RESULTS After 48 h incubation a considerable reduction in ROS levels in the QU-DB cell line upon treatment with cisplatin in the presence of saffron extract in comparison with cells treated with cisplatin alone. Furthermore, apoptosis increased significantly when in cells treated with cisplatin in combination with saffron extract compared to cisplatin alone. CONCLUSION Our data establish that the combination of saffron extract as a natural anticancer substance with cisplatin leads to improved cell toxicity of cisplatin as an anticancer agent. Therefore, the saffron extract could be potentially used as an additive to enable a reduction in cisplatin dosages and its side effects.

Abstract
Chemotherapy-induced peripheral neuropathy (CIPN) is a highly prevalent and complex condition arising from chemotherapy cancer treatments. Currently, there are no treatment or prevention options in the clinic. CIPN accompanies pain-related sensory functions starting from the hands and feet. Studies focusing on neurons in vitro and in vivo models significantly advanced our understanding of CIPN pathological mechanisms. However, given the direct toxicity shown in both neurons and non-neuronal cells, effective in vivo or in vitro models that allow the investigation of neurons in their local environment are required. No single model can provide a complete solution for the required investigation, therefore, utilizing a multi-model approach would allow complementary advantages of different models and robustly validate findings before further translation. This review aims first to summarize approaches and insights from CIPN in vivo models utilizing small model organisms. We will focus on Drosophila melanogaster CIPN models that are genetically amenable and accessible to study neuronal interactions with the local environment in vivo. Second, we will discuss how these findings could be tested in physiologically relevant vertebrate models. We will focus on in vitro approaches using human cells and summarize the current understanding of engineering approaches that may allow the investigation of pathological changes in neurons and the skin environment.

Abstract
Chemotherapy-induced peripheral neuropathy (CIPN) is a debilitating side-effect of cancer therapies. So far, the development of CIPN cannot be prevented, neither can established CIPN be reverted, often leading to the cessation of necessary chemotherapy. Thus, there is an urgent need to explore the mechanistic basis of CIPN to facilitate its treatment. Here we used an integrated approach of quantitative proteome profiling and network analysis in a clinically relevant rat model of paclitaxel-induced peripheral neuropathy. We analysed lumbar rat DRG at two critical time points: (1) day 7, right after cessation of paclitaxel treatment, but prior to neuropathy development (pre-CIPN); (2) 4 weeks after paclitaxel initiation, when neuropathy has developed (peak-CIPN). In this way we identified a differential protein signature, which shows how changes in the proteome correlate with the development and maintenance of CIPN, respectively. Extensive biological pathway and network analysis reveals that, at pre-CIPN, regulated proteins are prominently implicated in mitochondrial (dys)function, immune signalling, neuronal damage/regeneration, and neuronal transcription. Orthogonal validation in an independent rat cohort confirmed the increase of β-catenin (CTNNB1) at pre-CIPN. More importantly, detailed analysis of protein networks associated with β-catenin highlights translationally relevant and potentially druggable targets. Overall, this study demonstrates the enormous value of combining animal behaviour with proteome and network analysis to provide unprecedented insights into the molecular basis of CIPN. In line with emerging approaches of network medicine our results highlight new avenues for developing improved therapeutic options aimed at preventing and treating CIPN.

Abstract
Introduction: Taxanes are a class of chemotherapeutics commonly used to treat various solid tumors, including breast and ovarian cancers. Taxane-induced peripheral neuropathy (TIPN) occurs in up to 70% of patients, impacting quality of life both during and after treatment. TIPN typically manifests as tingling and numbness in the hands and feet and can cause irreversible loss of function of peripheral nerves. TIPN can be dose-limiting, potentially impacting clinical outcomes. The mechanisms underlying TIPN are poorly understood. As such, there are limited treatment options and no tools to provide early detection of those who will develop TIPN. Although some patients may have a genetic predisposition, genetic biomarkers have been inconsistent in predicting chemotherapy-induced peripheral neuropathy (CIPN). Moreover, other molecular markers (eg, metabolites, mRNA, miRNA, proteins) may be informative for predicting CIPN, but remain largely unexplored. We anticipate that combinations of multiple biomarkers will be required to consistently predict those who will develop TIPN. Methods: To address this clinical gap of identifying patients at risk of TIPN, we initiated the Genetics and Inflammatory Markers for CIPN (GENIE) study. This longitudinal multicenter observational study uses a novel, multimodal approach to evaluate genomic variation, metabolites, DNA methylation, gene expression, and circulating cytokines/chemokines prior to, during, and after taxane treatment in 400 patients with breast cancer. Molecular and patient reported data will be collected prior to, during, and after taxane therapy. Multi-modal data will be used to develop a set of comprehensive predictive biomarker signatures of TIPN. Conclusion: The goal of this study is to enable early detection of patients at risk of developing TIPN, provide a tool to modify taxane treatment to minimize morbidity from TIPN, and improved patient quality of life. Here we provide a brief review of the current state of research into CIPN and TIPN and introduce the GENIE study design.

Abstract
Bortezomib, a first-generation proteasome inhibitor widely used in chemotherapy for hematologic malignancy, has effective anti-cancer activity but often causes severe peripheral neuropathy. Although bortezomib-induced peripheral neuropathy (BIPN) is a dose-limiting toxicity, there are no recommended therapeutics for its prevention or treatment. One of the most critical problems is a lack of knowledge about pathological mechanisms of BIPN. Here, we summarize the known mechanisms of BIPN based on preclinical evidence, including morphological abnormalities, involvement of non-neuronal cells, oxidative stress, and alterations of transcriptional programs in both the peripheral and central nervous systems. Moreover, we describe the necessity of advancing studies that identify the potential efficacy of approved drugs on the basis of pathological mechanisms, as this is a convincing strategy for rapid translation to patients with cancer and BIPN.

Abstract
Chemotherapy-induced peripheral neurotoxicity represents one of the most relevant dose-limiting side effects that can affect cancer patients treated with the common antineoplastic agents. Since the severity of neurotoxicity often leads to dose reduction or early cessation of chemotherapy, the investigation of molecular mechanisms underlying chemotherapy-induced peripheral neurotoxicity is an urgent clinical need in order to better understand its physiopathology and find effective strategies for neuroprotection. Several in vivo preclinical models of chemotherapy-induced peripheral neurotoxicity have been developed but a great variability in mouse strain, dose, route of administration of the drug, treatment schedule and assessment of neurotoxicity is observed between the different published studies making difficult the comparison and interpretation of their results. In many of these studies only behavioural tests are used as outcome measures, while possible neurophysiological and neuropathological changes are not evaluated. In this study, focused on experimental oxaliplatin-induced peripheral neurotoxicity, we reproduced and compared four mouse models with very different drug dose (low or high dose-intensity) and treatment schedules (short or long-term treatment), selected from the literature. Using a multimodal assessment based on behavioural, neurophysiological and neuropathological methods, we evidenced remarkable differences in the results obtained in the selected animal models. This work suggests the importance of a multimodal approach including extensive pathological investigation to confirm the behavioural results.

Abstract
Peripheral neuropathy is one of the most common, dose limiting, and long-lasting disabling adverse events of chemotherapy treatment. Unfortunately, no treatment has proven efficacy to prevent this adverse effect in patients or improve the nerve regeneration, once it is established. Experimental models, particularly using rats and mice, are useful to investigate the mechanisms related to axonal or neuronal degeneration and target loss of function induced by neurotoxic drugs, as well as to test new strategies to prevent the development of neuropathy and to improve functional restitution. Therefore, objective and reliable methods should be applied for the assessment of function and innervation in adequately designed in vivo studies of CIPN, taking into account the impact of age, sex and species/strains features. This review gives an overview of the most useful methods to assess sensory, motor and autonomic functions, electrophysiological and morphological tests in rodent models of peripheral neuropathy, focused on CIPN. We include as well a proposal of protocols that may improve the quality and comparability of studies undertaken in different laboratories. It is recommended to apply more than one functional method for each type of function, and to perform parallel morphological studies in the same targets and models.

Abstract
Chemotherapy-induced peripheral neuropathy (CIPN) is an adverse effect caused by several classes of widely used anticancer therapeutics. Chemotherapy-induced peripheral neuropathy frequently leads to dose reduction or discontinuation of chemotherapy regimens, and CIPN symptoms can persist long after completion of chemotherapy and severely diminish the quality of life of patients. Differences in the clinical presentation of CIPN by widely diverse classifications of anticancer agents have spawned multiple mechanistic hypotheses that seek to explain the pathogenesis of CIPN. Despite its clinical relevance, common occurrence, and extensive investigation, the pathophysiology of CIPN remains unclear. Furthermore, there is no unequivocal gold standard for the prevention and treatment of CIPN. Herein, we review in vivo and in vitro models of CIPN with a focus on histopathological changes and morphological features aimed at understanding the pathophysiology of CIPN and identify gaps requiring deeper exploration. An elucidation of the underlying mechanisms of CIPN is imperative to identify potential targets and approaches for prevention and treatment.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Multiple cell signaling pathways are implicated in the development, progression, and persistence of cisplatin-induced peripheral neuropathy. Although advances have been made in terms of understanding specific neurotoxic mechanisms, there are few predictive factors identified that can help inform the clinician approach to symptom prevention or management. OBJECTIVE We investigate the differential sensitivity to cisplatin-induced peripheral neuropathy and examine the contribution of dorsal root ganglion (DRG) transcriptional profiles across two inbred strains of mice. METHODS Cisplatin (4 mg/kg intraperitoneal or vehicle control) was administered twice a week for 4 weeks to adult female C57BL/6J and A/J mice-the C57BL/6J strain of mice characterized by a robust mechanical allodynia and the A/J with a mild largely resistant allodynia phenotype. Peripheral nerve conduction velocities (NCVs), electrophysiological evaluation of wide dynamic range (WDR) neurons, morphological examination of DRG neurons, and microarray analysis of spinal cord tissues were compared across the 4 weeks. RESULTS The A/J strain presents with an early, mild nocifensive response to cisplatin with reduced neuronal activity in WDR neurons and small changes in cross-sectional nucleus size in DRG neurons at 4 weeks. The more nocifensive-sensitive C57BL/6J strain presents with no early changes in WDR neuron responsiveness; however, there were significant changes in DRG size. Both strains demonstrate a drop in NCV after 4 weeks of treatment, with the greatest reduction present in the A/J strain. Transcriptome data implicate neuroimmune modulation in the differential response to cisplatin in the DRGs of A/J and C57BL/6J mice. DISCUSSION Nocifensive responses in both strains implicate involvement of small myelinated and unmyelinated fibers in neurotoxic cisplatin response, whereas reductions in NCV reflect involvement of the largest myelinated fibers in the peripheral nerves. Microarray data analysis identifies neuropathy-relevant gene sets with differential activation of pathways, suggesting a role for antigen presentation in the differential neurotoxic response to cisplatin across strains. Further research is indicated to determine the relative contributions of each of these potential pathological mechanisms to both the neurotoxic response to cisplatin and to the potential for targeted therapy.

Abstract
The ability to differentiate among normal structures, procedural and processing artifacts, spontaneous background changes, and test article–related effects in the peripheral nervous system (PNS) is essential for interpreting microscopic features of ganglia and nerves evaluated in animal species commonly used in toxicity studies evaluating regulated products and chemicals. This atlas provides images of findings that may be encountered in ganglia and nerves of animal species commonly used in product discovery and development. Most atlas images are of tissues from control animals that were processed using routine methods (ie, immersion fixation in neutral-buffered 10% formalin, embedding in paraffin, sectioning at 5 µm, and staining with hematoxylin and eosin) since these preparations are traditionally applied to study materials produced during most animal toxicity studies. A few images are of tissues processed using special procedures (ie, immersion or perfusion fixation using methanol-free 4% formaldehyde, postfixation in glutaraldehyde and osmium, embedding in hard plastic resin, sectioning at 1 µm, and staining with toluidine blue), since these preparations promote better stabilization of lipids and thus optimal resolution of myelin sheaths. Together, this compilation provides a useful resource for discriminating among normal structures, procedure- and processing-related artifacts, incidental background changes, and treatment-induced findings that may be seen in PNS tissues of laboratory animals.

Abstract
Drosophila melanogaster has recently been developed as a simple, in vivo, genetic model of chemotherapy-induced peripheral neuropathy. Flies treated with the chemotherapy agent cisplatin display both a neurodegenerative phenotype and cell death in rapidly dividing follicles, mimicking the cell specific responses seen in humans. Cisplatin induces climbing deficiencies and loss of fertility in a dose dependent manner. Drosophila sensitivity to cisplatin in both cell types is affected by genetic background. We show that mutation or RNAi-based knockdown of genes known to be associated with CIPN incidence in humans affect sensitivity of flies to CIPN. Drosophila is a promising model with which to study the effect of genetics on sensitivity to CIPN.

Abstract
Peripheral neurotoxicity is one of the most distressing side effects of oxaliplatin therapy for cancer. Indeed, most patients that received oxaliplatin experience acute and/or chronic severe sensory peripheral neuropathy. However, despite similar co-morbidities, cancer stage, demographics and treatment schedule, patients develop oxaliplatin-induced peripheral neurotoxicity with remarkably different severity. This suggests individual genetic variability, which might be used to glean the mechanistic insights into oxaliplatin neurotoxicity. We characterized the susceptibility of different mice strains to oxaliplatin neurotoxicity investigating the phenotypic features of neuropathy and gene expression profiles in dorsal root ganglia of six genetically different mice strains (Balb-c, C57BL6, DBA/2J, AJ, FVB and CD1) exposed to the same oxaliplatin schedule. Differential gene expression in dorsal root ganglia from each mice strain were assayed using a genome-wide expression analysis and selected genes were validated by RT-PCR analysis. The demonstration of consistent differences in the phenotypic response to oxaliplatin across different strains is interesting to allow the selection of the appropriate strain based on the pre-defined read-out parameters. Further investigation of the correlation between gene expression changes and oxaliplatin-induced neurotoxicity phenotype in each strain will be useful to deeper investigate the molecular mechanisms of oxaliplatin neurotoxicity.
