Research Article: Fecal Microbiota Transplantation Alleviated Paclitaxel-Induced Peripheral Neuropathy by Interfering with Astrocytes and TLR/pMAPK Pathway in Rats
Introduction:
Chemotherapeutic drugs, such as paclitaxel, are widely used in treating patients with tumors, such as breast cancer, , ovarian cancer, , and lung cancer. However, these drugs can cause adverse consequences, including chemotherapy-induced peripheral neuropathy (specifically, for paclitaxel, it is known as paclitaxel-induced peripheral neuropathy (PIPN)). PIPN occurs in about % of patients receiving paclitaxel treatment, significantly affecting these patients’ quality of life. The main symptoms include pain,…
