Kinin B2 Receptor Mediates Cisplatin-Induced Painful Peripheral Neuropathy by Intracellular Kinase Pathways and TRPA1 Channel Sensitisation

Chemotherapy-induced peripheral neuropathy is a severe clinical problem frequently associated with cisplatin use.

Description
Summary:Chemotherapy-induced peripheral neuropathy is a severe clinical problem frequently associated with cisplatin use. Although its pathophysiology is poorly understood, it is known that kinin receptors and the transient receptor potential ankyrin 1 (TRPA1) channel play a significant role in the peripheral neuropathy induced by cisplatin in rodents. However, the role of signalling pathways downstream from B2 kinin receptors activation and sensitisation of the TRPA1 channel remains unknown in this model. The cisplatin-induced neuropathy model caused mechanical and cold allodynia in male Swiss mice. Antagonists for kinin B2 and B1 receptors and the TRPA1 channel attenuated the painful parameters. Local sub-nociceptive doses of kinin B2 receptor (bradykinin) and TRPA1 channel (allyl isothiocyanate; AITC) agonists enhanced the painful parameters in cisplatin-treated mice, which their respective antagonists attenuated. Furthermore, we demonstrated the interaction between the kinin B2 receptor and the TRPA1 channel in cisplatin-induced peripheral neuropathy since phospholipase C (PLC) and protein kinase C epsilon (PKCε) inhibitors attenuated the increase in mechanical and cold allodynia evoked by bradykinin and AITC in cisplatin-treated mice. Therefore, regulating the activation of signalling pathways downstream from the kinin B2 receptors activation and TRPA1 channel sensitisation can mitigate the painful peripheral neuropathy decurrent of the oncology treatment with cisplatin.
