Outline of Final Research Achievements |
We could not establish stable animal model for the paclitaxel-induced neuropathic pain. We therefore focused on the establishment of the animal model for the diabetic neuropathy and analysis of functional alteration of the primary afferent neurons. We confirmed increase in the blood glucose level in streptozotocin-treated animals. Behavior experiments using von Frey filament showed reduction of mechanical threshold 2-3 weeks after the streptzotocin treatment. We investigated the expression of ER stress marker GRP78 and CHOP after the streptzotocin treatment. While immunohistochemistry against GRP78 slightly increased after the treatment, real time PCR could not demonstrate increase of GRP78 and CHOP mRNA after the streptzotocin treatment. On the other hand, we confirmed that duloxetine was not so effective for pain and numbness due to taxanes-induced peripheral neuropathy in our patient data.
