Journal ArticleDOI
Paclitaxel- and vincristine-evoked painful peripheral neuropathies: Loss of epidermal innervation and activation of Langerhans cells
TL;DR: Experimental painful peripheral neuropathies produced by the chemotherapeutic drugs, paclitaxel and vincristine, are produced by relatively low doses that do not cause axonal degeneration in peripheral nerve, and activation of cutaneous LCs suggests possible neuroimmune interactions that might also have a role.
Journal ArticleDOI
Dysregulation of cellular calcium homeostasis in chemotherapy-evoked painful peripheral neuropathy
Chiang Siau,Gary J. Bennett +1 more
TL;DR: It is concluded that a similar abnormality of cellular Ca2+ homeostasis contributes to the pain caused by paclitaxel, vincristine, and ddC, but not posttraumatic painful peripheral neuropathy.
Journal ArticleDOI
Terminal arbor degeneration--a novel lesion produced by the antineoplastic agent paclitaxel.
TL;DR: It is shown that paclitaxel causes degeneration of intraepidermal nerve fibers (IENFs), i.e. the fibers which give rise to the sensory afferent’s terminal receptor arbor, and this lesion is named ‘terminal arbor degeneration’.
Journal ArticleDOI
Cutaneous tactile allodynia associated with microvascular dysfunction in muscle.
André Laferrière,Magali Millecamps,Dimitris N. Xanthos,Wen Hua Xiao,Chiang Siau,Marissa de Mos,Christelle Sachot,J. Vaigunda Ragavendran,Frank J P M Huygen,Gary J. Bennett,Terence J. Coderre +10 more
TL;DR: The results demonstrate how microvascular dysfunction and ischemia in muscle can play a critical role in the development of cutaneous allodynia, and encourage the study of how these mechanisms contribute to chronic pain.
Journal ArticleDOI
Characterization of a model of cutaneous inflammatory pain produced by an ultraviolet irradiation-evoked sterile injury in the rat
TL;DR: This model of cutaneous inflammatory pain in the rat produced by a sterile injury evoked by a single exposure to ultraviolet irradiation offers several advantages for the experimental analysis of the causes of inflammatory allodynia and hyperalgesia.
