Modeling mechanisms of chemotherapy-induced peripheral neuropathy and chemotherapy transport using induced pluripotent stem cell-derived sensory neurons

and Purpose: Chemotherapy-induced peripheral neuropathy (CIPN) constitutes a significant health problem due to the increasing prevalence and lack of therapies for treatment and prevention. While pivotal for routine cancer treatment, paclitaxel and vincristine frequently cause CIPN and impact the quality of life among cancer patients and survivors. Here, we investigate molecular mechanisms and drug transport in CIPN.
