Abstract
Paclitaxel is a chemotherapy drug widely used for the treatment of various cancers based on its ability to potently stabilize cellular microtubules and block division in cancer cells. Paclitaxel-based treatment, however, accumulates in peripheral system sensory neurons and leads to a high incidence rate (over 50%) of chemotherapy induced peripheral neuropathy in patients. Using an established preclinical model of paclitaxel-induced peripheral neuropathy (PIPN), we examined proteomic changes in dorsal root ganglia (DRG) of adult male mice that were treated with paclitaxel (8 mg/kg, at 4 injections every other day) relative to vehicle-treated mice. High throughput proteomics based on liquid chromatography electrospray ionization mass spectrometry identified 165 significantly altered proteins in lumbar DRG. Gene ontology enrichment and bioinformatic analysis revealed an effect of paclitaxel on pathways for mitochondrial regulation, axonal function, and inflammatory purinergic signaling as well as microtubule activity. These findings provide insight into molecular mechanisms that can contribute to PIPN in patients.

Inflammation-induced mitochondrial and metabolic disturbances in sensory neurons control the switch from acute to chronic pain. Cell Rep Med 2023; 4:101265. [PMID: 37944527 PMCID: PMC10694662 DOI: 10.1016/j.xcrm.2023.101265] [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: 11/16/2022] [Revised: 07/24/2023] [Accepted: 10/10/2023] [Indexed: 11/12/2023]
Abstract
Pain often persists in patients with an inflammatory disease, even when inflammation has subsided. The molecular mechanisms leading to this failure in pain resolution and the transition to chronic pain are poorly understood. Mitochondrial dysfunction in sensory neurons links to chronic pain, but its role in resolution of inflammatory pain is unclear. Transient inflammation causes neuronal plasticity, called hyperalgesic priming, which impairs resolution of pain induced by a subsequent inflammatory stimulus. We identify that hyperalgesic priming in mice increases the expression of a mitochondrial protein (ATPSc-KMT) and causes mitochondrial and metabolic disturbances in sensory neurons. Inhibition of mitochondrial respiration, knockdown of ATPSCKMT expression, or supplementation of the affected metabolite is sufficient to restore resolution of inflammatory pain and prevents chronic pain development. Thus, inflammation-induced mitochondrial-dependent disturbances in sensory neurons predispose to a failure in resolution of inflammatory pain and development of chronic pain.

Identification of Potential Visceral Pain Biomarkers in Colon Exudates from Mice with Experimental Colitis: An Exploratory In Vitro Study. THE JOURNAL OF PAIN 2023; 24:874-887. [PMID: 36638875 DOI: 10.1016/j.jpain.2023.01.001] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/21/2022] [Revised: 12/22/2022] [Accepted: 01/01/2023] [Indexed: 01/12/2023]
Abstract
Chronic visceral pain (CVP) is extremely difficult to diagnose, and available analgesic treatment options are quite limited. Identifying the proteins secreted from the colonic nociceptors, or their neighbor cells within the tube walls, in the context of disorders that course with visceral pain, might be useful to decipher the mechanism involved in the establishment of CVP. Addressing this question in human with gastrointestinal disorders entails multiple difficulties, as there is not a clear classification of disease severity, and colonic secretion is not easy to manage. We propose using of a murine model of colitis to identify new algesic molecules and pathways that could be explored as pain biomarkers or analgesia targets. Descending colons from naïve and colitis mice with visceral hyperalgesia were excised and maintained ex vivo. The proteins secreted in the perfusion fluid before and during acute noxious distension were evaluated using high-resolution mass spectrometry (MS). Haptoglobin (Hp), PZD and LIM domain protein 3 (Pdlim3), NADP-dependent malic enzyme (Me1), and Apolipoprotein A-I (Apoa1) were increased during visceral insult, whilst Triosephosphate isomerase (Tpi1), Glucose-6-phosphate isomerase (Gpi1), Alpha-enolase (Eno1), and Isoform 2 of Tropomyosin alpha-1 chain (Tpm1) were decreased. Most identified proteins have been described in the context of different chronic pain conditions and, according to gene ontology analysis, they are also involved in diverse biological processes of relevance. Thus, animal models that mimic human conditions in combination with unbiased omics approaches will ultimately help to identify new pathophysiological mechanisms underlying pain that might be useful in diagnosing and treating pain. PERSPECTIVE: Our study utilizes an unbiased proteomic approach to determine, first, the clinical relevance of a murine model of colitis and, second, to identify novel molecules/pathways involved in nociception that would be potential biomarkers or targets for chronic visceral pain.
